I agree with cstav- a ton of new 40 owners in the pandemic while everyone was looking for a hobby. Same thing happened in a lot of your toy markets, for instance dirt bikes, rvs, etc. We saw a moment of hobby galore that has cooled a bit imo Even I have so much less time for my own project…

This may be a silly thing, and I'm not experienced enough to know why it happens or if it could help -- but on my 77 I have to jump the RPM's fairly high at the start before the indicator jumps to charging. If I don't do that, it runs on a constant draw.

I have this exact same squeak that started this morning. I'm going to try your wd40 method and report back. Hopefully its as simple as that.

I'm running a '77 intake with the CA downey header. No modifications made.

Thanks for your reply - I'm looking for more of an aesthetic solution, rather than functional. The rest of the knobs on the dash have the nice finished bezel - it'd be awesome to find somethign similar in style.

hey @thecrazygreek I ordered one of these a while back and I'm looking at installing it next weekend. Something that I'm struggling with is finding a bezel/collar that fits in with the rest of the knobs on the dash. Do you (or anyone else) have a recommendation? I'm talking about this part -...

Yes you can! I replaced the entire floor without pulling the tub.

I was reading all that and didn’t realize it was all one day. Nice work! Curious, how do you like the wildwood proportion valve vs oem? I see them in city racer

are there any photos of it installed?

Do you have a video? Have you double checked all the bolts are tightened down? I had a chirp coming from the alternator bracket once. can you remove the belt and spin the air pump? I’m a noob so others will have more to say I’m sure.

I think you’re right, I messaged on another thread a while back, maybe a month, no word :/ hopefully he comes back! He has a nice part out rig

Hello! If still available: I’m interested in the windshield knobs on both sides of the dash pad. And Cigarette lighter if not too rusted!

Oh man, 14ga would have been awesome, I have the tissue paper ones installed from cruiser heaven out of Columbia…. Not replacing anytime soon, that was one heck of a project

Hi @78fjryan , what's the condition of that passenger side mirror? Any under the hood pictures?

bump!
