    Good advice from Old Brett. I don't mean to say 5100s are completely worthless, moreso that they are highly over-recommended on this site and do have their issues.

    You know bilsteins are a lifetime warranty? If you bought from a reputable shop they can replace them for you.

    Yeah, I realize that.

    But you have to consider all the options. Like, you could be enjoying not only my tent taint scent, but also my truck taint scent. Where else can you get that?

    Honestly, I hope you get through this situaiton as painlessly as possible.

    Things that don't fail don't require the hassle of warranty issues and replacement issues.

    Spy Hunter! That's a throwback haha

    FWIW Discount Tire patches tires for free. At first the guy thought I was joking when I said I needed more than one fixed.

    I don't think it is that bad...Not really sure how it is supposed to be though. It doesn't make noise when I lay under and try to jiggle the driveshaft.
    I feel ya there. I had 3 tires repaired at DT in the past month, two of them at the same time.
