Important notes:
Computer Programming: 2012 and newer vehicles require a computer programmer, such as the AEV ProCal Module, to reset the gear ratio and tire height in the vehicle's computer for the proper function of the vehicles stability control and transmission shift points

Differential Carriers: The center section is designed to use standard Dana 44 cariers/lockers (ARB RD117 or Eaton ELocker 19977-010). Not compatible with the factory Rubicon carriers.
