I know how the repair is done, as I did it before ;Really
What sucks is, I can't purchase just the white plastic turn signal disk, but the have to buy whole stinking 'costly' wire pigtail.

No f'ing way, that would be GREAT...do you have a part number???
Some 10 years ago I remember being forced to pay Ford almost $100 because I had to buy the whole stinking wire pigtail...and unpin-repin each stinking wire end.
All that $$$ just to get the turn signal disk.

Well thank you as well! I thought I saw them there, just never paid any attention to it since I've putting out bigger fires.

But it's what I need as well.

With a turn signal on for miles, I was starting to feel like a "Q-Tip", Snowbird" or whatever you call them

Beats the crap out of monthly car payments on a vehicle while it depreciates in value.
Well, yes, no and maybe...at 56, sometimes my time is more valuable then fixing broking sh*t on an old truck.

BTW...to the fellas that dug out those "turn signal cam links" > > > THANK YOU! ;Sweet

Trust me, I know how valuable time is, I don't waste it because there is not enough in a day. But flushing money into a dark hole of payments is lost time too. Money is time just as much as time is money.

I hear you. Found both outer tie rod ends shot doing a tire rotation yesterday. They were fine less than 2000 miles ago.
At least they're cheap...
