Appreciate the reply.
I don't expect to do much offroading to be honest, so I may not mess w/the shocks unless there's noticeable leaking, or I do notice something off if I go out rolling in the mud somewhere w/friends.
Is there a way to tell if Fuse 27 has already been done?
What's up w/the lead frame? my Google searches have only turned up something about a 6r80 issue that was on the 2011-2012 models?
No idea what you're referring to w/regards to the LCA alignment cams, I'll get to Googling some more.
Fuse 27: yes just look in the fuse box under the hood, the big box in the center above the radiator, and see if there's a little (usually yellow, frequently melty) fuse in the #27 location. If so, it hasn't been updated. If not, there should be a bigger, clear top blue fuse in #70, and a sticker should have been put in the fuse box lid (and in the owner's manual), and the update is done. It's cheap and easy to do, and worth not getting stranded somewhere when the engine dies or decides not to start.
Lead frame: yes I think officially only '10-'12 was affected, 6R80, read some horror stories and figured I'd rather be safe than sorry on my '13 with a 10/12 build date so next time I service the transmission I'll just replace mine. But check your build date, there's a chance it could happen to yours, just sayin'.
Alignment cams: all Gen1 (maybe Gen2 as well?) have this crappy slotted alignment system that uses slots at the lower control arm (LCA) pivots to change camber & caster. It's junk and an impact or loose nut can throw it off easily. SPC makes two different kits (be advised 2 come in a kit and you need 2 kits) that improve the system:

For harder use you'd want to eliminate them entirely (KHC and Rogue have weld-in kits) and get adjustable upper control arms (UCA) to set the alignment, but that can get spendy and may be overkill.
Just my two cents though, some observations on mine over the last couple years...
