    My little one got in and had his way with my turn indicator lever and messed up the internals. Anyone have a spare one that they are willing to part with? I have a 71 Jeepster commando. Thanks

    It's a GM column AFAIK, so you should be able to use the turn signal switch from a GM car of nearly the same year. The switch will be the same, though the wires colors and plug will be different. If you are careful, you may be able to take the old plug apart and put the terminals and connector body on the new switch wires. Either that, or if you are handy with solder and shrink-wrap, cut the wires and splice the new and old together. Stagger the joints so that the splices don't form a big knot at one place in the harness.

    Not GM, early Ford. Where abouts you located? I could probably dig one out for you but depending where you live it could be a while getting to you as I'm in Canada. There are new ones available, somebody over on the AJC just posted a couple of days ago looking for one. I know Jeepsterman in NJ has them, around $88 plus shipping.

    After checking all the Ford listings on the Shee-Mar website I can't match any of the old Ford ones with the Jeep but they're a Ford design. The cancel cam is the same as the old Econoline vans and the F Series PU.
