Default Clunk Fix

Took my 2006 GX470 to the dealer for 45,000 mile service last week. Since my 4 year/50,000 mile warranty is almost up (even though I understand the clunk is covered under the drivetrain warranty) I decided to deal with the clunk issue even though it really doesn't bother me. Mentioned it to the service advisor and they checked it and replaced the driveshaft (not control arms). They also replaced the battery under warranty as they said wasn't up to specs. Anyway, fairly painless.

I feel the harsh ride after driveshaft replacement is due to a height adjustment made on the air suspension to help correct vibration issues (shaft alignment to rear end ).
Dealer will not admit this.
