Hi Scott

Just took a quick look at both the HUP and 3 Ton Chevy CMP parts books and they both show three different types of generator one with a tail bushing, a front ball bearing and no air filter. The next has a tail bushing, a front ball bearing and air filter. The last showing tail ball bearing, a front ball bearing and air filter.

If you want I can post the parts diagram and the detail pages if you don't have them.

I just rebuilt the generator for my HUP which has ball bearings at both ends but strangely it doesn't have the air cleaner. Bearings were good so I cleaned and re-lubricated them and reinstalled. Only other work was new brushes and brush springs. It is now back on the engine running on the test stand.

Cheers Phil
