    I am trying to figure out if you need to lengthen or extend the rear wheel speed sensor harness when going to a long travel rear end set up. Im planing on 14 inch Kings with shock relocation mounts, shackle flip kit and LT Leaf packs but havent decided which ones yet. The wire bundle comes down from directly above the rear differential and is about 12 inches long. It houses the rear speed sensor wires and the rear differential lock wire. I will include the picture. has any one replaced this with longer wires? if so where do you get them? do you make them? Thanks in advance.

    I don't have the 14 inch kings yet. One thing to consider is that if you flex either side it should be ok because it's in the center of the different but if you fully droop it like on a lift or a jump. That's where I'm concerned.

    There's probably more play in those lines before the mounting bracket, traces back and take up the slack, then you can always drop the bracket with a small extension piece.

    You're fine. At jacked up droop I still have plenty of play in mine. Unless you're pushing say 17"+ of travel in the rear, then you might want to look in to extending that a bit.

    Also, worst case you could probably just cut that wire clip and let it hang a bit more, that'll buy you another couple of inches. IYKWIM

    I have 18" travel on my rear with leafs and the wires are not extended. The brake lines are.
