I looked at their site and it doesn't mention the '17 and newer trucks.. Will it work on an '18?

I like the e-locker because the traction control acts as a limited slip when the differential is open, when I really need it, I just lock it in.

The wrangler rubicon rear electronic locker is a limited slip when unlocked; the front is an open diff when unlocked. it's the perfect/ultimate setup IMO... too bad they have the towing capacity of a Huffy.

I was looking on SPE's site and it didn't list the '17 and newer trucks so i sent them a email.. they said that the units are ready to purchase but the ship time would be about 2 weeks out. I took that as they were still developing these
When I went to order I saw that the "new" kits are almost $20 higher, they have gone from 50 to 70.. not sure I'm willing to pay an extra 20 to be their guinea pig
