I've checked the grounds added grounds, So I can pretty much rule that out. Anything else to look for? I hope the switch does it.

Ill probably end up changing the sockets if it still doesnt fix it. I would like to swap out the entire harness in the truck, but thats alot of work.

Brake light switch fixed my problem. But now my passenger brake light is brighter then the drivers. Almost like the brake light is staying on, on the passenger side, but gets slightly brights when applying the brakes.

Bad socket? Check juice and ground impedance to the two sockets and see if equal?
