Its something that I am going to do down the road, so I have not studied up on it yet. When I finish assembly on my truck, I am just going to use the stock bulbs and then change them over at a later time.
Yep... LEDs typically don't provide enough resistance in the lighting circuit to actuate the flasher correctly if at all.

correct, they make led flasher replacements... if you go LED in the tail, you need to go LED up front as well....
