Congratulations on being "street legal", Michael! That always helps you
rest a little easier when driving around! The turn signal unit on my '47-1
was slipping all around when I got the truck. I tried several time to
tighten it up, but the screw was as tight as it would go. I finally used a
piece of two-sided tape (adhesive on both sides of the tape) under the
clamp. Stopped the slipping completely.
