    Well,
    I put on my tire carrier and noticed it shakes too much for my liking....
    Then I noticed my rear bumper was missing 2 bolts and the other 4 was finger tight...

    All good now....

    So I killed my Diehard 31m battery yesterday. Not really sure how it happened but I think my ARB compressor did it. Extended running to fill a 11 gallon tank and not running the truck long enough. I had it 1.5 years and it has a 3yr warranty so hopefully I can get it replaced. Looks like I am installing a low battery shut off to my gizmos and gadgets.

    Doesn't sound like warranty should be an issue. Low power cut off sounds like a good idea. 11 gallon tank? I assume you have that behemoth in the bed? Why such a large tank?

    I'm going for an alignment tomorrow. Getting a few clangs and clunks again (haven't gotten an alignment since we put the 5100s on). Thinking it's the sway bar, the UCAs are too far from the springs to be hitting. I'll get my numbers before they align and make sure they get everything in spec. What are my ideal #s supposed to be for camber, caster, and toe? If everything gets aligned and I still get the noises I'm ripping that stupid bar out

    I have run the compressor for extended periods before with no issues so maybe the battery was weak and that was the stray that broke the camels back. Ha, yeah its a little bulky to say the least. I don't keep it in the truck, only use it for projects and I don't have room for an actual compressor so I use what I got. I want a long slender tank to put in between the bed rails. I have seen them on lowered trucks to run air bags and they have lots of ports for connections.

    Might look into a better alternator if you're not gonna run the truck for a while after using the compressor. That's a lot of strain on your electrical system from your uses.

    ask @Sandman614...he's my mechanic...

    I'll look at them today after it gets aligned. I need to know the specs on the alignment that they need to hit

    Haha I don't think it's the bushings. He's got a few more miles than you do.
    For Alignment numbers for a lift most people agree on, 2.5-3* caster, 0* toe, 0* camber
