dont you need tochange the voltage to use the LED lights

 

yea i wanted the whole assembly, i already got the led bulbs. i just changed my flasher, i didnt use a load resistor or anything like that. but i still dont understand why they make leds for every other truck except ours!!! kinda frustrating

 

I really just wanna light up the truck better. Just to make things clearer for anybody trying to see me at night, I wanna make sure when they are actually looking ahead that these bright *** lights will let them know someone is in front of them. Around this area people seem to rearend you more than anything.

 

Not necessarily. They will still function but if you don't get a load resistor or change the flasher you won't be able totellif the LED's are burned out or not from inside (the blinker doesn't speed up like with burned out stock bulbs). I can't remember the technical details on how this works but i'm sure someone will chip in.

 

Those ones for the S-10 look bad ***. My buddy actually has a set of those on his truck. I've been DYING to see them make some for the Blazer but no one appears to want to make them. After summer starts and things calm down I might attempt to make some, maybe open a market of my own if it's not too expensive lol. The ones for the S-10 really aren't that complicated, he had to change the flasher for the LED's but that's really it.

 

Do any of you know of parts companies like LMC Truck that i could get catalogs from?I like the stuff in LMC, but i'd like to look around more. Also, anyone know of companies that would sell OEM parts for 50s Plymouths, by chance?

 

I just bought some LED front turn signal bulbs for my Blazer, but I'm having the flashing problem. You said your friend actually changed the flasher module, rather than using one of these? What exactly did he get to resolve the problem? Thanks for your help!

 

All that you need is a heavy duty flasher relay. These relays are timed circuits instead of the amperage triggered circuits. Bad part is it won't tell you when you have a bad bulb, but a quick visual every so often will keep you in check.

 

If they are LED's then only one LED will go out at a time and you will still have others left in there thus your bulb pretty much will never burn out. If you are talking about the main turn signal, then yes if you got those LED Load resistors they should work, but you may have to change the flasher module/relay. If it is just the sidemarker flashing light, you need to make sure you got non-polarized LED's since the Blazer switches the polarity of those bulbs to make them work. Hope this helps.

 

I don't think you need both load resistor(s) and a change of the flasher, just one or the other. I hear that load resistors can get really hot though, so a flasher may be a better option.
