    Current Turn Signal Options

    I have been looking for what the current turn signal options are currently. I thought that there was talk of someone continuing Russ Thompson's turn signal design, but I have not been able to connect or get any information. What are people doing for turn signal kits these days? Thanks!

    TJ @ https://www.mountain-metalworks.com/ took over the RT design. Reach out to him if still interested. He did make some nice changes.

    I don't think TJ at https://www.mountain-metalworks.com/ is around. I've left a number of messages and emails with no response.

    If you don’t need auto-cancellation you can also consider a basic hot rod turn signal solution. They are quite inexpensive and straightforward to integrate. Just google hot rod turn signal.

    I know TJ has had some family issues that have taken him away from his business. I had a drop trunk outstanding from him and he bent over backwards to get it out to me and service was GREAT. That was back late last year so havent heard anything from him of late. Hope all is going well with he and his family!

    Hey Guys,
    Yes, I'm still around and continue building Turn Signals assemblies and other parts. Some personal issues finishing off '23 and into '24, and more recently 6 weeks of a lung infection and cracked rib(coughing) have really put a damper on things. It has taken it's greatest toll on my communication with potential customers, which I'm extremely sorry for. Production of the RT turn signals continues at 5-6 per week to get through our backlog, and we have a batch of 17 in production right now. Pics of the most recent batch in production and some finished units from recently below. I have all emails and communications saved and I'm working on (belatedly) getting back to inquiries and using those original inquiries as a "placeholder" for Turn Signals in priority order.

    Dropped trunks and throttle pedals are already built and ready to ship.

    I have gotten off to a poor start communication-wise with my beloved FFR community when it comes to producing and selling these parts. I can only hope that the quality of the parts, the very reasonable prices, and the overall experience can make up for the hurdles in contacting me.
    I will be updating the website as well to reflect these parts, especially as we try to expand into other items once our turn signal backlog is cleared.

    I will work to find your specific emails and get back to you ASAP.

    Thank you for your patience,
    -TJ
