It was a while ago but I don't think I did which could be the reason they didn't work consistently.

If I recall, they did not work consistently. It was really cold when I tried to replace to LED's and I didn't have a chance to troubleshoot the tail light harness.

Buddy, those look great! I tried installing LED tailights on my GTX but was having issues so I went back to standard.

My 71 GTX 4 speed dana.

yes I did. I have it narrowed down to the switch on the brake proportioning valve. I will try and bleed the brakes to see if the valve will move back into it's normal position and the light go off.

I hope to see you there. Not sure if I'm brining the GTX or the TA.

Hello all, quick update on the hesitation issue. I removed the old points and condenser and installed Petronix. Thought I would do that before removing the carb to service the accelerate pump. After I installed the Petronix the hesitation issue was completely gone. Think I may have had a bad...
