Non-Rubi locker switches

[BearDog]

About to get the rear gear set in for my Max Tow. Will be adding Eaton E-Lockers front and rear as well. Anyone know of a good switch kit that integrates well with the interior? Did Zauto ever get their harness ready to use Rubi switches on non-Rubi trucks?

Trying to stay away from the multi type switch panels, as I will never add that many things to my truck and don't want to spend the moolah.

I used Lasfit from Amazon. They look stock and no programming required.

How do the accessories connect?

I use the Voswitch panel in mine. They have several different styles.

The 2 switch banks come with thier own distribution box. They're sealed and water tight. They mount under the hood and you just have to connect them to a power source ie, the battery. You then connect the supplied harness from the box to the switches and whatever accessories you're running connect to whichever lead (1-4) you choose. Super simple. With both switch banks you have a total of 8 switch options, 2 of which are front and rear lockers. I believe there are some videos on YouTube that showcase these. A little pricey but worth every penny if your looking for ease of installation and no programming hassles.

Searched a few hours last night. Did not find anything that fits my taste better than the Lasfit. More switches than I need, but will look fine. And, I like the pass-thru for the GMRS mic.

Just ordered it. Thanks for the suggestion.

The Lasfit switches are great. Work perfectly with my Eaton E Lockers and they look factory. I highly recommend them.

You'll really like them. Also, 4 of the switches will have positive (labeled) leads that come into the cab under the dash to wire up for accessories that are inside the vehicle as well. I added a reaview camera and lcd screen from Amazon. I mounted the camera on the front and wired it into Cable 1 and then wired the little lcd monitor to the cable 1 lead inside the cab. Now i push aux button 1 and it powers my front view camera and the monitor at the same time. The GMRS plug makes it look like your Jeep came from the factory with a Midland radio.

I also have the Lasfit switches. Been using them since last year. Work great.

Thanks to all for the recommendation. My set of Lasfit should be here today.

Install went fine. Took about an hour, with most of that being spent routing wires "just right".

Question: All switches light up and stay lit except for the two locker switches. Those two beep 5 times while flashing then turn back off. Is this normal since I don't have the lockers wired to the switches yet?

Correct. It doesn't do that after you add lockers. Once I added lockers, mine didn't do that anymore. Also, the switches are default to locker mode. They can also be used in standalone mode. In other words, like regular switches. So, maybe if you switched them to standalone mode, it might not do that if you pushed them by mistake and you were annoyed by the beeping. Lol

Awesome. I'll leave as is. The whole reason for adding these was locker control.

Thanks

The difference between locker mode and stand alone mode is that locker mode is looking for the input from the locker sensors and to be in 4 LO. If you hold the switch in for 5 seconds it changes it to stand alone mode and you can turn them on/off at will in any condition. At least that is my understanding of how they work. I leave mine in stand alone as I don't have sensor wires in my harnesses. Also, I had to order the correct wire harnesses from mopar. The ones from Dana/Spicer are not specific to Jeep and wont fit the Jeep connector at the axle. Male sure to connect the BCM wire as well.
