Hey Ralph I need a left backup light for my 85 TD if yours are not spoken for. Let me know.

It's probably a good idea to take a look at the little bracket on the rear sway bar which actually moves the control lever on the valve. Make sure it hasn't somehow gotten misadjusted. It is probably fine but you never know. My system was a bit droopy even after replacing the spheres. A rebuild of the leveling valve fixed the problem. But if you choose to ignore the problem I have a set of functioning rear backup lights for sale. ;<) Pretty soon your going to own half my car anyhow. Ralph W.
