I don't recall the 2 small coil spings on mine however.
Have your tested the function yet? | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 124 Member | Member Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 124 | I checked a photo of my assy and you ARE missing parts. The coil springs should connect to the turn signal cancelling thingies. Are your coil springs hanging loose?
These are 'L' shaped and pivot on the 2 posts to the right of each coil springs in your pic. On mine, it looks like a rivet holds these on - so I'm not sure how yours were removed.
It looks like your assy will function OK mechanically, but not automatically cancel. I've never run across these parts by themselves. | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | jgalt's got it, Garrett this one\'s rough and missing 1 spring [and it's attachment stud], but the 'thingies' are there that are missing on yours, and they're on a 'swedged' stud that should make them permanent - you'll hafta find the whole cancelling ring piece w/ all parts attached Bill | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 221 Shop Shark | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 221 | Yes, it does work OK but does not cancel. American Classic has a canceling plate for $2.50 but that's all I can find anywhere.

I spoiled ya!! Bill | | | | Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 221 Shop Shark | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 221 | Yes Red56. The hole is a much bigger priority. I'm going to have to drop some kind of radio/CD player in soon. right now I'm trying to buy Christmas for 3 kids 13 to 8. | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | Sell those kids now while they are still young and cute!
It may already be too late for the 13-year-old!
In a few years you'll think Christmas was pocket change when you see how many trucks you could buy with just one year's college tuition money.
Don't say I didn't warn you!
