Generator rebuild recommendation
#1
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away

I would greatly appreciate recommendations for an experienced shop to rebuild my Owen-Dyneto generator for my 1931 Packard 840. It is stamped DN-860, but I believe this is an error, since DN-860 should be an Owen-Dyneto starter for 1928-1930 (443,640,740) cars. The correct generator for 1931 (840) should be model CL-896, and I think that's what I have. As I understand it, bench testing requires additional equipment.
Recommendations anyone?
Thanks.

I can confidently recommend Jason at AER but he's a busy guy, superb work but don't expect a fast turnaround.

You could also consider Classic & Exotic Service in Michigan.

CL-896 would be the correct unit for an 840/845.

Jason rebuilt the starter and generator for 1937 One Twenty. He did a great job and very easy to work with.
