Default disconnect on a Sahara?

I am wondering if anybody has installed a stock rubi electronic disconnect on sahara or other models. If it is possible how much would it be. I would like disconnects and i know i can go with some "quick dis-connects" but it would be cool to have it electronic!

I'd like to do this also. On the Mopar website it shows 1350 parts(I think) plus I think it needs a trip to dealer to scan

It's not hard ...

Use the instructions that come with the Mopar Kit and you can install a Rubicon Take-off which can generally be bought for around $400 .....

That's what I did ... as well as many others ... just gotta search ...

It works without flashing but you will not have the Dash Indicator ... Mostly all of the tuners can enable it without going to dealer.

Nah, Priceless is being out there playing on the trails while the guy with the broke a$$ e-disco is sitting at the dealership paying $1500 to get that junk replaced.

NOT TRUE. Quadratec sells the whole setup including wiring and switches for $1400. Grab a 10% off coupon when ordering to get that plus free shipping. However, you're still looking at $1200 for the system. I have it on my Rubicon.

Nahhhhh PRICELESS is when the e-disco is flashing and can't connect after a trail ride then finds out the E-disco is hooped and needs to be replaced and no warranty left!
