    As I drive off base everyday in my exploder and watch all the stupid people, I think to myself that I wish one of these idiots would hit me-daddy needs a pull truck. I have low miles, the couple issues it has aren't noticable to the insurance company so book is high. Couple months ago I get pit attempted, pitched me sideways. Zero damage. On friday, just cruising along and get hit-hard hit-no damage to the ex. This hit caused about 2k damage to the other guys camry. All I needed was an alignment. I mean I am getting what I asked for, but can a muthafucker just do a good job.

    I have an ARB up front and a ARB compressor, I had the same issue, it was the pressure switch/shut-off on the compressor, I replaced it and all is good. Try mixing some soapy water in a spray bottle and spray the joints for leaks as a secondary check.

    Id pull the pressure switch and check to make sure the teflon tape that helps seal the threads is not covering the sensor hole.

    Next time you can "help" by going in reverse and gunning it just before impact, should increase the energy of the crash pretty good for at least a bent frame. Or just look for anything with F350 on the side and just drive in front of him or better yet, her.

    Found my exhaust issue, after it was off the truck.. So today I had a new magnaflow muffler installed with new downpiping.

    i think my old muffler is still 100% fine.. temped to have it put back on cause the one that was installed today is smaller and waaaaay loud...

    I only heard it when the back window was open,, so maybe it was always bad.

    My mpgs went up and my power feels better.

    The old muffler downpipe was blowing on the axle.. the new one kicks down and to the tire.
