NEW 2 LOW UNLOC KIT contest give away
We are please to release our New 2 Low unlock kit. We are going to give away 5 units to some lucky TDR forum members. Here is the deal.

You Must tow and you have to write a product review on how it works for you and the ease of installation and post it here. Post your user name, the year of your truck and the weight of your load. On Friday Morning I will take all the names put them in a hat and draw them randomly. I will post the winners Names Friday Morning and send them a PM for your shipping/mailing address. Yes its that simple.

Here are the highlights of the Product.

https://www.dieselperformance.com/sh...-2013-2016-586

Designed to allow the operator to manually disable the front wheel drive mechanism by holding the hubs in the free (2WD) mode with the transfer case in 4WD low range.

By allowing the front wheels to be disengaged, maximum torque is available to the rear wheels.

This will also allow for sharp "All The Way Over" turns without the front axle u-joint hopping or binding.

With this kit installed, the front wheels will NOT be driven through the transfer case.

Allows to have full power and torque while in a high gear reduction applied to the rear axle(s) only.

Installation is simple, the kit plugs in below the glove box.

No wire cutting or splicing and no wires through the firewall
Kit comes with an illuminated rocker switch for control and to indicate when the front axle is being overridden.__________________

Hector - Not sure how this contest works. If you're just releasing the product, how can we possibly leave a review for it? I'm confused.....

Either way, BD has great products. I put almost 200K on a BD exhaust brake that was mounted in my 3rd gen. Had to replace the piston that closes the butterfly at about 160K. Other than that, a flawless brake. I just added the BD throttle sensitivity booster on my 2016. I have it set to 50% and it feels like a new, new truck even though I have less than 7k miles on it.

Sounds just like what most of us have been waiting on. I have a 2013 3500 DRW that I pull mulitple trailers with, the main one is the living quarters horse trailer that is 18-23k depending on the amount of horses and gear. I also pull equipment trailer with tractors and hay?

Hi Hector,

We got the 2-low unlock kit today. Thank you. I'm hoping to install it tonight or first thing tomorrow morning. Then I'm off to the S Fork ranch for testing. All dirt mountain roads with steep inclines here in there. Essentially, I have to put my truck in 4wd once I leave the pavement just to get around. Looking forward to 2wd lo without the front tires fighting tight turns.

 

[Deleted member 995608]

For those who received a kit from BD,..... have you installed it yet? What are your thoughts about it? Be sure to give BD some feedback on their 2wd Low kit.

 

[jhenderson]

Still waiting. How's yours working?

 

[JR]

I'm surprised there weren't alot more people jumping all over this. What a great deal!*

 

[CBari]

Still waiting, doubt I get it put till end of June in the Hay field this week and they head out of the country for 2 weeks. JHAWES you defiantly set the bar high with your right up.

So far so good on my 2016. No quirks or codes.

I haven't decided yet where to mount the switch, so I have it laying in the center console thingy for now. I'm not ready to drill holes in my dash yet........ I so badly want the aux switch option now.

Still waiting. How's yours working?

You're wating for install? Or waiting to receive the kit from Hector?

 

[jhenderson]

Waiting on the kit. The aux switch wouldn't help. They provide 12 volts. All you need is continuity.

 

[CBari]

I will probably mount my switch in the removable panel just above the drivers left knee. I already drilled into it for my aux fuel tank gauge and switch. I thought it would be cheap to replace if and when I ever sold truck. There is also a panel on the drivers side of the center console that is removable and replaceable, but it seems like it wasn't deep enough behind it for my fuel gauge when I looked at using it. I use to work for trailer dealership and I always hated drilling holes in new trucks.

 

[Deleted member 995608]

CBari - Good call on using a cheap replaceable panel. I'm having a really hard time putting a drill bit through a $60k truck though.

 

[jhenderson]

Good news. The kit arrived today. I hope to work on the installation and testing this weekend

Shoot, I wish I saw this earlier. I now pull a 36' Genesis Supreme 5er. Maxed, it's around 14K. I have to back it into my side yard, up a slope, and then back down. I use 4 low to avoid smoking the transmission. Unfortunately, it's around a sharp corner and 4 low does a number on my yard. I'll have to look into this for '06.
