2014 Tundra Crew Max Build

Problem was install, the shock reservoir contacted the airbag bracket and cut the speed sensor/ABS wire, and yes, you can't use the 4X4 when that happens. Got the new write harness today so all is good.

Whoa. Didn't know you lose 4wd when abs light is on. Gotta try this on my 1st gen tundra and see if it will keep me out of 4wd. Don't like that at all. Tundra looks good and the camper is sweet

ABS speed sensor, I'm wondering if I was in.4WD if it would have disengaged.

Lose a wheel sensor would trip the abs light. Now do you lose 4wd because of the abs light or only if the light is related to the wheel sensor.

Ok, replaced the wire loom for the rear abs/ speed sensor, 4WD works now, now a 100 mile round trip to reset the error lights. I'm going to switch the piggyback reservoir to the remotes, there's to much room for something to pinch. Will advise

Are you still using the stock rear leafs? Your truck looks a bit taller in the rear. On the OME kits they say the fit kit FK32 is needed to compensate the ABS wires for the taller rear end. The kit is a very easy install and uses the stock ABS wire tie down points and is not OME specific. I had no idea that 4x4 is disabled without ABS. That seems completely backwards.

I went the OME route for suspension and added Coachbuilder 3" shackles. I also have the Firestone air bags with Daystar cradles. I have some airbag spacers from Coachbuilder that I will probably install. The truck / camper rides great without the airbag spacers and the bags are just under 7" extension with the camper on and pumped up to 60 psi. I've been running 10psi less on the passenger side airbag.

Stock leafs with a one inch block. The wires demise was due to the shock reservoir pinching it. After turning the shock resi to the back that problem has been resolved. Waiting for the extensions for the bracket under the cradle (it compensates for the 1" block). The truck rides great, 70mph in washboard like glass.

So the extensions were delivered and it was then I realized that if I removed the 1" blocks it would eliminate the need for the extensions and also allow more room for the airbags to do their business. Now for a road test to Arizona.
