On a generator stand, the cradle is the full width of the stand. For an alternator, the front part of the cradle is set back from the front of the upright to allow for the larger diameter of the front part of the alternator.

A generator will fit on either stand but an alternator won't fit on a generator stand.

Scott, If you get a chance check for me. And I'll ride down and get it. I've been wanting to check out your stash of goodies anyways.
