Finally getting around to installing the NKS on my 17 PW. Does anyone have printable instructions you could send me? The link provided by Abel does not work.

Thanks!

Here is a copy of the instructions I got when he sent me the first prototype for this setup. I actually am the one the got him doing these, as I reached out and asked him to make me one. Regardless, Im sure he has upgraded the directions since this, but I honestly dont know.

Its super complete and pretty straight forward! You should not have much of any issues. I installed this and I am a complete noob when it comes to wiring.

Can you post a link to where I can purchase the NKS ? I tried to order one years
ago for one of my earlier PW's, but never could find one in stock. Thanks!

I also went with the full bypass kit- allows to use factory knob/button with integrated sway bar disconnect. Both F/R lock instantly. Money well spent

Works on my 2018 1500
Nah, not really.

it will let you spin the tires, but thats about it. Try to do spin doughnuts and the traction control and braking will start laughing in your face. Antilock brakes will still kick on too.

:confused: So, where does that leave me here guys? Is there a 'Final Answer' for me with my 2018?

Does it work on my truck, or not? Ideally, someone with a '18 PW will respond with a clear, solid answer.

I've tried several 'bypass' switches from various folks when they finally became available (they stopped making them, or were out of stock a couple years ago from the site I believe you linked to) and although after punching in the much too complicated "Cheat Code" , I could access the features in 4Hi-etc. but, I never could defeat that damn 19 mph governed Grand Master Nanny that rules the Power Wagon's internal electronic world.

It will work on your 2018. You can email me and I'll give you the details: [email protected]
