Well shit the bed do u take returns for a never used never unwrapped never installed locker bypass LOLRetired BLM Rig wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 4:03 pmThis one only bypasses the locker part of the system, but I just developed a new system that removes the factory SmartBar module completely and replaces it with a “Full SmartBar Bypass”, all controlled from the O.E. switches. I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to start a new thread. It’s a combination of this locker bypass and the new electric sway bar disconnect I’ve been working on. I just finished a 3rd Gen unit for a customer with a dead system and I’m building the first 4th Gen unit.06wagon wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 10:14 amQuick question..... What if the factory smartbar is bad? Will this bypass the whole thing? I'm currently getting all kinds of traction control, service electronic braking system warnings on my 2016. I have the smartbar unplugged for the lockers and swaybar (all warning lights have stopped). I'm just curious if using this will keep me from having to replace the whole thing.
It requires a completely different control box and wire harness layout, so it’s completely different than the Locker Bypass that this thread is about. There’s a picture of the new control box in the thread titled “Locker Bypass Improvements”.
There’s already a waiting list, I’m working as fast as I can.

That's what I was thinking about. As I haven't yet installed mine either.BULLITT1204 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 7:58 pmWell shit the bed do u take returns for a never used never unwrapped never installed locker bypass LOLRetired BLM Rig wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 4:03 pmThis one only bypasses the locker part of the system, but I just developed a new system that removes the factory SmartBar module completely and replaces it with a “Full SmartBar Bypass”, all controlled from the O.E. switches.

Hi Max, welcome to the forum! I sent you a private message.maxoverload wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2019 5:54 pmHi, I have a 2005 Power Wagon. I'd like to order one of your bypasses. Please let me know how to proceed, thanks!
Sweet! Like some of those above I haven't put mine on yet (although slow it has been engaging) with the complete override of the sway bar disconnect added I will for sure be putting it on! I'll shoot an email to get on your list - thanks!Retired BLM Rig wrote: ↑Thu Oct 17, 2019 9:25 amFor those of you that already have a Morgan, Shelby or Abel Locker Bypass: There's a retrofit upgrade coming that will give you the ability to control your sway bar at will also.
Is this an upgrade to the one you created? Is there a writeup on it? I haven't actually installed mine yet... so if I could control the sway bar that'd be amazing without the speed limiter.Retired BLM Rig wrote:For those of you that already have a Morgan, Shelby or Abel Locker Bypass: There's a retrofit upgrade coming that will give you the ability to control your sway bar at will also.

Yep, still making them. Whenever you're ready just shoot me an email: AbelComponents@yahoo.com
The original 4th Gen installation instructions are available here. This system has been updated and now mounts inside the cab. To get a copy of the new installation instructions, send me an email: AbelComponents@yahoo.comTommyDuncan wrote: ↑Fri Jan 03, 2020 9:26 pmI bought my locker bypass in July but never installed it. I know I read some instructions but I can't remember if it was online or if they came with it?
