My right turn signal started blinking rapidly. Changed bulb a few times. Changed flasher box. Still nothing. Went and bought the turn signal joy stock ( for a lack of a better word) and wired that up. The right one still blinks fast but now when turning right the front right blinks fast and the rear LEFT blinks fast. When turning left the rear RIGHT turn signal blinks ... HELP!!!!

Sounds like the rear signal light wires are crossed on the new switch. However, since the multi-function switch ("joy stock as you referred to it) has a plastic connector at the end of its wiring harness to prevent the wires from being crossed by accident, check the wiring harness at the rear light to be sure that they haven't been damaged or shorted one to the other.
