I heard okeefe did a shut off switch in his ZJ. Just wondering if its really needed, & if so how hard it is to wire it up?

i stared at it for 10 min and couldn't figure it out. i must be getting smarter in my old age.
i've only heard of a couple going off while wheeling in the last 10 yrs. now i'm not saying it has or hasn't happened often i'm just saying it hasn't happened enough that it would be of a concern to me. you could just pull the fuse for it i actually wheeled with a guy a the FF a few yrs ago that did that when we hit the trails.

eitehr way, ill worry about it after it goes off. I would hate a switch because if you forget about it and a day, week or month later its in the off position and somone hits her.... lame shiit can happen...

Just got back from price. Wish I could of gone all the way to moan... I think I might get some junk yard 17 inch rims. And put some free 33s from my work truck on. Would anyone else do this? Id probably need spacers but for free tires I think id consider it.

After Ryan posted the question, I asked around to the guys at work and they were pretty unanimous in their answer. Disconnect the battery, wait a bit and just unhook the sensors. Reverse the process to hook them back up.
You have me thinking on this one Ryan, although I'd never considered it, I've seen a lot of trucks "totalled" by the insurance company due to a deployed airbag. Probably not a big issue for the guys with OHV, but might be an issue for us who DD ours.

I would just buy the 17" wheel... little more $$ but a lot less trouble some IMO.
