Hi folks.  I have an AK 337 with the factory 24volt generator.  The generator has stopped working and I would like to have it rebuilt.  I know I can get the replacement alternator, but it costs around $600-800.  Any ideas?  Thanks

Mark, How is it driven? You might be able to find a 24 volt alternator and make a drive adapter for it. It you wanted to go to 12 volts there are a number of small tractor dynamos (permanent magnet alternators) available from John Deere and others. Again, a drive adapter would be required but once done you'd have a ready source of replacement parts without the high ticket price.

The LOM generator is a simple object, and is no different in design from any other generator. - Any aircraft electrical specialist should be able to help you, or an automotive shop with an interest in the vintage market. A quick Google search for “generator repair” found 5 in the city where I live.

 

 For an aircraft generator overhaul shop, I would start here: http://www.aircraftaccessoriesofok.com/capabilities_i887911.html?catId=40025

 

 If they won’t look at yours, they can probably suggest someone who will.

 

 Are you certain it is the generator that has failed and not the control box/wiring?
