So sorry for your loss.

 

Sorry for your loss.

 

Don't fuck around Wilco

 

Thank you all for the support. Its what I needed today keeping this all bottled up over the weekend having only shared it with a select few people in my family.

@jlusmc ....... THANK YOU. You made myself and my foreman shed tears of joy this morning when I saw the image you made. It truly struck me at the heart and makes me think of all the wonderful times I had with my dog.

 

3rd alignment since the lift. I think they finally fixed it. It was pulling to the right bad after I installed the Dakar’s. Today they had to align it 3 times to figure it out. They said it was the trust angle correction that fixed it. It drives straight now as far as I can tell but we’ll see how it does over the next several days.

 

Dang where did you finally get it aligned right at.

 

Autoeuphoria in Killeen.

 

I teared up reading this, we have an 8 month old puppy and I don't even want to think about that day he goes. I've had friends and loved ones pass but I don't think any of them will hit as hard as when our pup goes. I'm truly sorry for your loss.

 

Ok cool thanks

 

From one dog lover to another, I'm glad I could help you find some joy! Please feel free to save the image for moments of reflection if you desire. Hang on to those sweet memories and visit them often!

 

So sorry to hear that xo thinking of you guys

 

Squeaky springs. Hs aal

 

Thank you for the kind words. Don't dwell on that day when it comes. You have lots of wonderful memories ahead with that 8 month old pup. I always tell people to take it one day at a time and enjoy every second of it you have with them.

My wife wanted to pass along a thank you as well. It truly touched us today.

Thank you very much.

 

They're not necessarily in the wrong. You want them to take a look and repair a component that is no longer stock. Of course it should cost you.

Have you driven offroad? Maybe the source of the squeak is mud/dirt between the leafs. Stick a hose in there for a while, blow dry them, dry lube them.... Or remove the AAL and see if the problem persists, if so, try another service department.

 

I have to agree with @GoddardPool , you can't expect them to make a repair to something that is no longer stock. Also, as he mentioned, the squeak is most likely FOD in between the springs. You can power wash it out, and spray some WD to eliminate your problem. However, there has been two other guys that have HS springs, and the dealer had no issue with performing the TSB. What dealer did you go to?

 

Cedar park. Likely going to take it to round rock. Service is supposed to diagnose that it is not caused by the aftermarket springs which they did not and are telling me they have to remove the aal which will add to the amount of time to conduct the tsb which is not true either.

Somewhat expected the advisor to deny it but the fact that he hadn’t even read the tsb he denied me for and was feeding me information that conflicted with it is what irritated me most.

Squeak disappears every time I wash my truck and reappears a day later when it’s covered in dirt.
