Looking for a mag and cap like this:

Jim F · « **Reply #1 on:** April 06, 2014, 07:45:50 AM »

I have a Fairbanks morose set up
But is that for a 4 cylinder bike?

Medyo Bastos · « **Reply #2 on:** April 06, 2014, 08:10:09 AM »

yes, need for a 4 cylinder. i do not even care if it works, just as long as the housing and cap are intact, and will fit an ard belt drive...

Looks like a twin mag in pic but we know what you mean.
The pulley, probably Browning.. If anyone has the number please post it on here, Russ Jr may have it, and I will check whether new has, but it's not ARD.

I have an International tractor 4 cyl head but it's different casting. And has some recoil setup.
They all start off as Tractor or generator mag bodies..

Try this place I got a cap for my ARD from him for my Triumph a bit pricey.

I am not sure if this he Wico is hot, far as I know it works. Just showing another type of 4 cyl mag, adapted to Honda 750.

Most of the actual mag parts can be purchased from http://www.mainelymagnetos.com/

Just let them know you are working with a ARD magneto and they will be able to help you out.

good folks

I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for.
You need the whole "magneto" part or service parts for one?

Service is easy.
The actual magneto is harder, but doable.

Medyo Bastos · « **Reply #17 on:** May 10, 2014, 04:07:45 PM »

just looking for a cap for one now

jaguar · « **Reply #18 on:** May 10, 2014, 04:57:35 PM »

The four plug cap?
Any fairbanks magneto cap will do. Price ranges from $30-75 depending on where you buy.
Some have a longer or shorter "pick up" post. But hat is easy to deal with.
Standard off the shelf tractor part.

Medyo Bastos · « **Reply #19 on:** May 10, 2014, 07:34:40 PM »

yes, 4 plug cap! 'preciate it!

Ricky_Racer · « **Reply #20 on:** May 11, 2014, 11:40:39 AM »

Gee, Medyo. I wonder what you want a non-functional ARD for? Hmmm... Incredible idea!

RR

Medyo Bastos · « **Reply #21 on:** May 11, 2014, 01:23:09 PM »

uh, huh super good idea you came up with there!!!!

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #22 on:** May 11, 2014, 01:26:09 PM »

Jim F hid his electronic ignition in one! Looked cool, but was a gutted unit!

Ricky_Racer · « **Reply #23 on:** May 11, 2014, 07:34:07 PM »

Damn, and I thought it was a unique idea! {sigh} Oh, well, nuthin' new under the sun, I guess... Good thing I have a teenie, weenie little ego!

RR

Bill/BentON Racing · « **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2014, 08:17:37 PM »

Damn, Im sorry!

that was a bubble bursting on the west coast we heard!

Jim will have to fess up was it his idea or did he see it somewhere!

Bill

jaguar · « **Reply #25 on:** May 11, 2014, 08:27:51 PM »

I had a ARD CDI unit that was gutted too.

If the OP needs a cap, rotor or what ever just for mock up and such I have some used parts.

Medyo Bastos · « **Reply #26 on:** May 12, 2014, 12:31:23 PM »

i need the cap for keeps, lol

Yeah, it would be worth it to spend the $50 on a new one then.
rotors are cheap
