Wow, that more than I paid for the switch and harness from quadratec
Switch $40 http://www.quadratec.com/products/52446_110.htm mine does not have the axle lock and it cost 5 buck less. Harness was $70

Pigina...Are you getting the OEM factory Ruby 44 w/locker? or are u just adding an ARB air locker? Reason i ask is because i have heard there have been alot of problems trying to hook the Ruby 44 in non ruby jeep models...but thats just what i have heard so i was just wondering.
Thanks again everyone for the help!

I have the Rubicon 44 already installed, I'm just buying the harness to get the pigtaill to plug into the axle.
I'm just going to wire the locker with a rockerswitch and not into the JK's computer..
btw my E-disco worked without a lfash, I just had the flash done so my dashlight would work. They charged me $40.00

Good if the e-disco connection will work after a flash, 'cause the Ruby lockers won't... I got Rubicon D44's front + rear for my Sahara, and bought the harness and switch. Couldn't get the lockers to work and called Chrysler and they said there's no way to get it working on a Sahara...
So, after thorough research, everyone who did it have got separate rockerswitches for the lockers. And that's the way I'll go as well.

No computer to tell me when I can or can't, no flash from the dealer, everything's sweet and simple... and it works!

I purchased an ARB locker switch, but same difference.
DId you buy the mopar harmess for the pigtails or did you cut the plugs off?
what did you do with the locker sensor wiring?

.. if so that sux... i really like the oem feel

Ok so im getting a Stock rubicon electric disconnect for my sahara...It came off of a ruby with 6k miles on it and hasent been used since... The only problem is it dosent have the wiring harness...is it possible to buy the wiring separate from any web site? or will i have to rigg it up or something?
i want it to be done riht and have the stock switch put in where it should be...is this gonna be possible? Also... im getting it at only a couple hundred more than just getting JKs discos... Do the ruby E-discos show their worth? I mean are they pretty strong? i dont wanna get it all put on and hooked up and then have to worry about it dying in a week :P Any input would be great... Thanks so much

Ok so here is the final question i pose now...
When i buy the Switch
http://www.quadratec.com/products/52446_110.htm
And then i buy the harness
http://www.quadratec.com/products/52446_111.htm
And then i get it flashed...
Because the harness will not be hooked to any lockers and there will be a oem switch not connected to anything (locker switch) even though it will be flashed for the E disco...wont it still be throwing a code? I just thought about that since theres gonna be locker clips not connected to anything...
maybe it wont have a problem but it just seems like it would...what do you think? is it gonna be a problem even after i drop 150+ bux in getting all the switches and wires and getting it flashed?
