not quite sure what you anticipate a resistor doing?

If needed, I was thinking I could remove any control from the computer to alter the damping. Thus leaving the strut void of any changes to damping.

And it should all be disarmed when the truck is off, which I assume it is when you’re servicing it and lowering it from the Jack.

Well, I believe I may have found the culprit.

I sprayed my control arm bushings in hopes the thunking sound might be a bad bushing. After spraying them the noise ceased for a few days, then came back. I sprayed again and same deal, couple days later it was making the noise.

So on the 3rd spray down, I noticed something...and I remembered this started a few weeks after my alignment.

Needless to say it's going back in this week and we will have to work out a solution....hopefully it can be straightened out to ensure proper fitment on the control arm.

Should be evident in the pic.....:mad:
