    What's even funnier is that 35s are tight enough that shifting an alignment cam even a tiny amount can result in rubbing at ride height when it previously wasn't . If that shop clearances the bare minimum he's likely to rub the next time he gets an alignment. I like where he says he knows what cutting for 35s involves.... When he really doesn't have a clue.

    So turns out the tankless water heater is fine and the reason the shower kept randomly going cold is because of calcium in the shower head causing low flow (GPM). The water flow was low enough that it would go under the minimum for the heater.

    Got some CLR and soaked that bitch in it. After giving the kids a shower this evening its soo much better.
    Before the temp was either cold of scalding. Now I get a nice warm consistent shower. I think it could use some more treatments in the CLR though.


    Finally said fuck it and made an appointment to get an air conditioning quote next week (Thursday). Pretty sure the wife and I are going to pull the trigger on that one ASAP. Ill probably try and get on the install schedule right after I get the quote options.

    So, just a quick question here, I walk out of the store and walking to/towards the back of my truck (I.e. eyesight straight to the back of the truck) and notice that the driver-side left rear corner is sitting quite bit lower than the right? I think about the pavement first and it was basically even pavement. So, it can't be the pavement. I compare distances with the rear bumpstops and noticeably the left is much lower than the right?! I drive to my next destination and compare again and basically the same?!

    1) Is it a blown shock?

    2) Is it a cracked leaf pack (i.e. they're stock leafs)?

    3) If it is a cracked leaf pack, are/can I see the crack?

    4) I put my weight on the left rear and "feel" resistance. I put my weight on the right rear and feel the same/similar resistance, but a slightly different feel? I don't really know how to "test" for shock functionality?

    Thanks brothas and gotta hit the road for work!!! I can "view" the thread, but I can't log on at work. I hope someone can help/respond??? Thanks again brothas!!!

    I would feel around the shock body and see if you feel any clear residue. My guess is either something cracked to cause the offset or there is a fluid leak. Considering though that this is relatively new, it could be a shock leak unless you did some hard wheeling as of late. Best thing is to crawl underneath and give it a thorough inspection just to be sure.
