Thanks! I can provide more details as needed.Awesome Job and write up David!!
The biggest issues were the instructions, they were not clear or relevant to the NA LR4. The electronics tables were fine, but it was a bit sloppy. Certain parts of the instructions were very clear, others were quite vague. I actually am going to call ARB USA and give them some feedback.So, the two main issues you encountered were inaccuracy of the electrical diagrams / instructions from ARB and the issue with Parking Sensors?
If I were you, I would try and contact ARB for some clarification with their instructions. Point out your issues with the electrics in particular. I would think they would want this kind of feedback.
Great work all around. Looks amazing!
Yes, those are exactly what we used. I did not use the supplied Scotch clips, but rather some weather resistant ones like you posted. I wanted to make sure any electrical connections were extremely solid and bundled up nicely. This is really what took us the extra 2-3 hours to make sure everything was done right and wrapped up well.Looks awesome. I'd love to see a pic in the sun light of the underside of the ARB to get an idea of the approach angle and skids. I assume the ARB skids get rid of the aftermarket sump skid you had before?
The one thing I've never liked about their bumper design was having to install the winch and lift/adjust the entire assembly. You need some rope instead of cable! Lightens the front by 20lbs.
Also I always suggest when doing wiring like this to use weatherpack connectors to aid in making changes or removal in case you need to repair/replace something or take it back to stock.
Just one example kit:

Can you add the parking aid after the fact? Is the area in the bumper reachable?
Thanks, Umberto!Well done David, it looks like all that hard work was worth it. I was going to suggest to try physically disconnecting / unplugging the front park sensors to see if you would still get a warning or fault, but I am glad Patrick is coming through with a software fix for them.
(Which reminds me, time to order my IID Tool if I can figure out how.)
