I will try that. I had one originally but they would not flash at all. I was told it was because of the LEDs. I don't get why they work with the engine not running but not with it running. What's the connection?

I have installed turn signals using LED front bumper mounts and LED tail lights on both sides. I have a shaft mounted lever switch and have the flasher unit with the extra ground. Everything works beautifully until I start the car and then nothing flashes. Tried running it through the switch...

still looking for a good carrier and spider. :)

I guess being in the right place in the right time is paramount to getting the pieces one needs. I just don't know how one hears about these great sales where all the old pri mo parts are to be found.

Okay, so who has a carrier and spider in good shape to sell. As I said, I have gone through a bushel and don't have one that I want to spend the money on putting all new bearings, gears, and seals only to have it growl and whine every time I turn a corner.

I have a bushel of carriers and spiders all which have problems. Anyone know of some place / one who can weld wear and then machine it back to tolerance? what are the rest of you doing with badly worn parts which are not available anymore?

Thank you for your help. I am now on day two and not sure what I have done. Seems I get the doors fitting and then the hood does not. Hmm. Maybe day three! It truly is not an easy job.
