Duce,
If you mean the rear turn signals, they are the same filament as the brake lights.....
If it were just a bad chassis ground, things back there would work badly or strangely because the light assemble would be grounded through the marker
light filaments to the front frame.
I suggest that you get out the chassis wiring diagrams and carefully diagnose the system.
All of those signals (brake and turn) go through the turn signal switch and that has a major junction down on the steering column. If things aren't
good there, they won't be good any where.

Exercise the 4 way flasher switch. It has to go through there to get to the rear.

Look at the wiring diagram on the left side fOr "Directional Signal Haz and stop". It shows a 20 amp fuse feeding all of that. The fuse is located
inside the glove compartmment behind a steel plate held in with one screw.
