The automatic lockers on the Jeep Rubicon can only be engaged while in 4 low. I have since then seen articles regarding a mod that will allow you to lock both diffs in either 4 high or 4 low. Has anyone tried this mod or tested it?
Not tried it but I'm looking for the same thing for my JK. I have a work around however.
Work around? Tell me more please...

If Brad can't fix something...he just buys a new upgraded part 😂

You so funny!
I put an ARB in the back of my jeep so my front locker now doesn't work becuase it thinks the rear is never on. I'm connecting the rear wiring to the front so it can be turned on an off when ever I want.
Another thing that bugs me is the 18MPH swaybar connect. I need a bypass for that too.
What does your swaybar do at 18mph? does it reconnect ?

Yep.
It will automatically reconnect at 18MPH. Very annoying in the snow...
There has to be a speed sensor involved, and I'll bet it's part of the computer internal program. Find the wires on the diagram that drive the disconnect motor. Wire a switch to bypass it. If the check engine light pops up then you know it's a computer issue. Use your obd II code reader and remove the code. This would be my recommendation and something to start with. TEST at your own risk please.

I do have a reader so I could do it that way. I've heard it's in the core computer so I can get a programmer and turn off the code. It's just that the programmer is $340 and that's not a priority right now. I did install the disconnects on my swaybar so I can simply pull the pins and run it like old school.

Which disconnects did you go with, and whats the overall performance difference between the old disconnects and the new type?
My disconnects are RE. They are not the Gen 2 TJ disconnects. I ran those on my TJ before installing my SwayLoc.
My JK disconnects are simple pull pins, but my rubicon has a electronic sway bar disconnect that opens with the push of a button.
