3.  Not sure, but I think my EGT-150 (same as  GE ET, but two parent
companies later) has a 36V lift motor.  It  probably bolts right into your
ET if you can find one.
Chris, I have a New Idea EGT-120 and have owned several GE  tractors. The
NI lift motor is entirely different from the car window motor  used on the 
GE
tractors. I have seen comments on this list that some of these  were made
for 36 volts and they were marked with an orange dot. Mine did not  have an
orange dot and the tractor was wired to run the lift motor from 18  volts, 
so
I left it that way.

When I converted my NI to a front mower deck I found that the front
bumper/crosspiece did not have the derrick required for a front deck - 
these  were
supplied as a separate part for NI. I used a front bumper from a GE that
already had the derrick welded to it, and I had to redill the holes to 
mount
the  New Idea lift motor. Not a big deal, but it did require some  
adapting.

The biggest problem would be finding one of these New Idea motors. Maybe
our suppliers might have one of these.
