Attempted to install my new headlights, LED turn signals, LED side repeaters, and LED marker lamps. Didn't work out too well.... One marker bulb was rusted in place, and i broke it off in the socket. Got the Halos wired in, and the right side finished up but now my blinkers don't work on the right, and they blink way too fast on the left and sometimes slow down and speed up on there own... I am completely lost

Same as trimming the fenders up front. You can stuff more of the tire in the wheel well but the cut and fold method is because thats the way you have to cut it and then fold it over because you cant just cut it

i've often wondered this too - best I can figure is that 1) the rear quarters are some of the first to see damage (like mine) 2) when coupled with a high-clearance rear bumper, it will give you better departure angle...
but this is all speculation, 'cause my rear quarters are still in the factory location
