Happy with mine, but I got a MY 19 with the new 48-11 setup (4Auto) and some folks may have the 48-12 (no 4 auto) on the MY 19 trucks...The 1500's. I have no clue on the 2500's..

Thank you sir. [emoji16]
I’d be interested as well. I tried watching a before/after of your truck in snow but the “after” vid wouldn’t load.

I’m very interested in seeing the vid and possibly buying a harness.

Here's some videos of the switch in action.

Where can it be purchased and what’s the price?

If the vids are accurate I’m sold

It works, I tried it out in some deep snow this winter that I may have been stuck in without the switch. Activated the switch and it pulled itself right out.

Oh it definitely works. I got stuck pretty bad in beach sand a couple months ago, flicked @Brandon-w 's switch and got out. Scary **** since the tide was coming in. 4Lock/4Low without this switch in the 44-44 is a joke.

It's amazing how hard the 44-44 locks isn't itemoji57.png

Amazingly! I asked Brandon how to test it without being in this sh*t as I was unsure.

Once I had it set up, wheels full locked in 4wd with the switch on, truck in drive with foot off the brake, truck wouldnt move..... Turned off the switch and it was like the truck was shot out of a cannon (not really but you get the point). Impressed

With the truck in 4Lock, find a good dirt parking lot or a wide dirt road and flip the switch. Then do a hard lock turn, you'll feel the front inner wheel spinning in the dirt just like a real 4wd truck should.

What CFCMatt asked, are these switches still available, and could I use a switch from my Spod ?

Are these switches still for sale? Are you able to swap the switch body out to something from OTRATTW?

Check @Brandon-w Profile for his email address to order one.

I'm not 100% sure but I think you can use whatever switch you want...
