Couple of questions

What would a spare tire size typically have been in a 500Kr. Also I am having problems with the sequential turn signals, they are all new. Do just the inner and middle lights blink? Or do all three lights supposed to blink both left and right side. Thats my questions of the hour. Thanks in advance!

The 68 KR tire would typically be the E70 15 wide tread blackwall   https://kelseytire.com/product/goodyear-e70-15-custom-wide-tread/

Thaks BOB-PETE for the info. I am at a loss why the outer most lights dont blink on both left and right sides.The wiring, Dynamite sticks and just about everything else is new back there. Any suggestions on where to look? :-[

Coralsnake

Make sure its wired correctly, you have awesome grounds, the correct flasher

So as not to confuse the OP, 67 Cougar sequential system talked about in the link is completely different then 68 Shelby sequential.

Great point made

Go to the West Coast Cougar site or better yet give them a call and all your inquires should be resolved

Best of luck

I will bet a dollar the flasher is either electronic or incorrect.

I think it is an electronic flasher. Came from Brandas as a kit!

"I have a bunch of modified or reproduction crap on my car and cant figure out why it doesn't work?"
