What are u 40 guys doing about how uncomfortable it is to keep your foot on the damn gas pedal for longer than 1 min? Are you buying the 2-3" seat Bracket extenders? Modifying something else? Crazy uncomfortable for me.

Not sure what you are talking about on this one. You too tall or what?

I have the same issue...only after a couple of hours though. I have Celica seats, though, and have always thought maybe they were too tall/thick.

I think i'm going to get the seat extension brackets that a couple guys sell...that should do it.

Ive heard this little pill called Tryactin* does wonders for man cramps.

I drove my s*** round trip to MK. ~250 miles
Seat room is made for little sushi guys, but your legs adjust after driving multiple trips.

I thought the driver seat was adjustable?

 

[ntsaint]

My driver seat is all the way back. I gots the long legs...

 

[Bomar]

I could never have a 40. I gots big gut.

 

[Bossman]

Sure you could. You just need power steering and a smaller wheel.

Anyone changed out their blinker switch assembly lately?

Been workin on why mine won't work, and found that I'm missing a connection where the assembly connects to the main harness.

The two connectors both have places to connect to the harness, but that little single guy over to the left has no home...

Any ideas?

 

[fountainhead]

Horn?

 

[ntsaint]

Horn works. And hazards work. It's just the signals when using the switch on the tree that dont work.

 

[fountainhead]

The only green/white wires on the diagram are from the horn relay to the horns and from the hazard switch to the flasher. If the hazard works, though, the flasher should be connected properly.

I give up. Rob will chime in shortly with the answer.

 

[ntsaint]

Thx JT. I studied wiring diagrams till my eyes crossed earlier. Can't for the life of me find any reference to that connector.

I want to run it down before I order a $120 blinker switch tho...

 

[fountainhead]

For what it's worth, I troubleshot this same issue at length on my 40 and ended up buying the new switch assembly from cool cruisers to get the blinkers to work.

Yeah unless someone can point out the issue I'm ordering a new switch Monday. I'm just a tad worried it will also have that third connector and it will also not work:..

 

[ntsaint]

Mystery solved. Wire left over from 74 and earlier harness. Unused in my truck.

 

[offr0adlim0]

You beat me to it. Wire is unused.

If you hazards work and your turn signals do not, you need a new switch.
