    Did you get a new sensor? They typically don't have to be reprogrammed unless a one breaks and is replaced. Use the SET tpms button to reinitialize the system if you had them rotated, changes psi etc. A blinking like just means the initialization failed upon starting the truck.

    You can go to a shop that has the programmer and have them remove sensors in the system. When I worked at 4Wheelparts (i know, I know) I programmed my system with 'non-sensor' spare tire, since I took it out. The system didn't look for a spare sensor, thus didn't trip the light on. Its now back since I lost the setting when swapping batteries.

    Well. It's a 10 year old truck with 180k miles on it and original sensors, so I can't be too upset. But I do know that they had always worked fine before I took it to them and now they want like $300 to replace them all. I would rather drive around with a blinking light

    And the set tpms button does nothing unfortunately, so one must be broken.

    Those grinds are fun!! Went through 2.5 flap disks yesterday doing finish grinding and cmc with a buddy. Something about your face in the wheel well with a tool that could chop your nose off in a flash is actually quite relaxing.

    And all morning swapping deavers for dakars, and all is fucked.

    more sag on the drivers and they feel like shit when driving. I have very little of my water weight on (including a empty fuel tank) and none of my storage bins and fridge. I feel like deaver made me weigh my truck but didnt really take the numbers serious. I hope Alcan built you the correct leaf pack @Overlanerd, it is a pain to install.

    I have a feeling they will be sending me some leafs this week (hope they arent at sema all week) so I can learn how to pull apart a pack and rebuild.

    Got screwed at work. The owner of the project I'm on needed me to be available all weekend just in case we had a hurricane touched down. It's been in the 70's all day. :annoyed:

    That's why we wear PPE :D. No joke though, I'm always pretty serious about PPE after we had a guy jokingly wear all of his (down in the boiler room, in the Navy), went to go open a major steam valve, came back with the valve packing imbedded in the goggles he was wearing, with a melted face mask on. If he hadn't been wearing all of it, it would have been a bad fuckin day for him. Also I get nervous about a disk moving at a couple thousand RPMs that slices through metal, near my face, those things shatter on occasion lol
