Are Load Resistors Needed for 1946 Willy's Jeep With Swapped LED Lights

Question

Question:

I have 1946 Willys jeep that I have added led taillights and front led turn signals. Do I need to use a load resistor on each turn signal light or just use led flasher? My other question is do I have to change my tail lights on to led light on four wheeler trailer. Thank you.

You can add either or really, since they'll do the same job. If you do add resistors # DI34ZR, you'd need to have one for each turn signal bulb.

To answer your second question, no you do not need to swap out the lights on your trailer to LEDs.
