Test fitted the diff with the not so flush bushing. I have about 2-3 wraps of stud thread past the top of the nut, so I thread locked it and torqued to spec. Re-bled the brakes, put everything back together, went to start her up... battery dead. GF left the ignition on after bleeding the brakes... AGAIN!!!
Picking up the battery from auto zone, do a shake down and a proper brake bedding. If everything checks out fine today, gonna DD her for a couple days to see if anything abnormal pops up.

Sounds like a vacuum pump or power bleeder is in your future. Far cheaper than a battery

Autozone battery charging is really cheap! lol
I have the Motive power bleeder with the aluminum cap, but the cap kept slipping off the reservoir filler. One of the plastic indents on the reservoir that keeps the cap on is pretty beat up.
