If England's Lucas system was the prince of darkness,then Chrysler came close to writing the book on bad grounds on our beloved Mopars.
Pretty much the majority of all Mopars of the 60's/70's used body for ground on the lighting systems for turn signals,park,and brake lights.
Ma also used potmetal,aluminum,and tin for the lighting housings with stamped in sockets.
The majority of lighting problems is when the sockets short out from years of exposure to moisture,and rust caused by dried out lense gaskets,or lost or broken lenses.
One bad socket can wreak havoc on a Mopar driver with wierd things happening.Popping fuses,or both signals light with only one on,or the light in the dash lights up,but the outside one does not,etc,etc.
So,when you have a complete rear tailight housing with one bad socket,with no repops in sight,and no good used ones around,what do you do??
I have a solution I tested and works.
Plus it is a cheap fix and when done nobody would notice any difference,and no more road rage from other drivers when your light work properly!!
