I have a 1957 Chevy stock 3100 truck. I replaced the turn signal switch when I did the restoration a few years ago. To this day I still have an issue with the turn siginal switch assembly. When I am making a right or left turn the switch will not stay in the down or up position. I have to hold the little chrome arm to make the switch work. Is there just an issue of adjusting the switch or am I victum of the Chines aftermarket junk that is out there?
Thank you for any help!

Yes been away from Stovebolt now that the truck is pretty much done. I will take another look at the switch. I hope it is a simple fix.
Did you hear about all those Chevy's in Nebraska up for auction this weekend??
Thank you!
