Re: "Flickering" low bean headlights

shew01: If I said load resistor it was my mistake. I apologize.

Wiring harness is new.

Re: received my deluxe flathead ted brake kit today concerned

Kevin:
The Santa Anita Model A Club made an EXCELLENT dvd on the Flathead Ted Brake kit/install. Order it from Snyders. Part # A-18801-F. Watch it several times to get familiar with the parts/names.

Re: Headlight Help

Bob: Did you have to install load resistors on the low beams to prevent "flickering"?

Where did you buy the led bulbs?

Re: Radial sway

Have you called the place where you bought them. Tell them about your problem and that you want them replaced or a total refund.
