Turn signal and brake lights.
Also boone, I did check the connector and it wasn't fully plugged all the way. However the problem still is there. I guess the only way to rule out the switch is to check all the connections then. Joy...- Murdock

Turn signal and brake lights.
Yeah, I haven't seen that and I been under there a few times this week. Would this affect the other stuff though, the parking lamps, and front signals?- Murdock

Turn signal and brake lights.
I mean as you apply the brakes, the turn signal indicators in the dash will light up. I never recall this happening before, and before the bed was off the turn signals didn't work at all on any side.

So just wondering if that is the solo...- Murdock

http://youtu.be/VKNiv-_eMwU Thanks for the welcome guys! Also this is a video of the truck, I have since fixed the smoking issue. It had some clogged ports in the head, which was making the oil run into the cylinders so much to the point it blew oil out the exhaust. It still smokes a...- Murdock

Wood Bed Help
Hey guys, I am new here and did some searching without much in results on a project I am working on. I am currently working on a 1987 GMC Shortbed Stepside Pickup with the wood bed. I removed one of the old drop in bedliners and discovered the wood was of course rotten and it needed to be...
