Battery dead overnight

I've got an 08 f150 xlt super crew with 107k. Have an electrical issue somewhere. Battey is dying overnight. Dead as a door nail dead. Have been doing some fuse pulls to see what might be triggering it, and with the radio fuse pulled, I've gone 6 weeks without it dying. This thing is completely factory minus the leveling kit, tires, and wheels. HELP!

Could your leveling kit be leaking and the compressor running during the night?

No the leveling kit is just a spacer on front shocks

I've the same problem with my 2010 F-150. The drain is coming off the dash, and radio circuit, compartment fuse #26 in this case. What I did was rather spending hundreds to replace the electronic module under the dash, is to run a simple "kill switch" for that fuse that I positioned directly under the steering wheel. Allows for full dash function and the radio. Just remember to turn it off at the end of the day.
