All you need is Nomad 1500 or 1600 voltage regulator bracket. The bracket bolts directly to the front frame tubes ends directly under the radiator. There from $6 to $15 on eBay.
Also the bolts you remove from the left side regulator will screw in directly to the frame tube holes and the Nomad bracket attached threaded nuts to mount the bracket. Then you can use one more bolt to attach regulator to bracket and drill out one hole to attach regulator.
You will need to remove left side cover that comes off after you remove toe and heel shifter and left side floorboard. That's a good time to flush and change your clutch fluid. Then just relocated the regulator and wires attached over the top area to the front to mount to new bracket. Replace cover and shifters and floorboard and your done.
I cleaned my bracket and regulator up, then painted with black heat bbq type paint.
