SDI Eclick on Pre- LV Shock Trucks

[colticus]

Ive had eclik and '19 Live valves (with SDI revolve) on my '17 truck for about a year and a half now. It has been the mod I have enjoyed the most. The ride is better, the handling is better. And I don't even offroad.

Pretty sure a OBD II splitter will work but is anyone out there running their access port and the E-Click display at the same time?

Looking at using this unless someone out there has some better advice:

Were you ever able to make this work with any OBD2 splitter device?

I’m in installing my SDI e-clik system on my 2017 now, but I would like to be able to run my old nGauge simultaneously.

I am very likely headed in this direction with e-click. Hopefully soon.

@802Avalanche yes, however, in order to get a good connection I removed the OBDII port from under the dash via the two screws on each side. I then wound up my SDI and COBB cables into a nice bundle and zip tied them to other plastic pieces of the trim much higher up into the dash to keep it out of sight. I then double zip tied the COBB-Splitter-OBDII port with additional zip ties to withstand spirited driving. So far I've driven about 6k miles on this setup issue free and run both on all the time.

@smurfslayer do it now..... (Arnold voice) best mod hands down even over the newer Gen3 suspension (stock). It's a whole different animal on and off road with the sdi, I say spring extra time at SDI and send the shocks to them for their re-valving and special sauce. If you haven't already purchased the Kit I'd hit up Rick Freedom Motorsports.

The shocks are already in my garage from SDI, now awaiting the e-click controller.

Sounds great. Now how do I get my hands on a COBB OBD2 splitter port? I only see a cable on their site.

I had no luck so far with an old splitter I had in the garage from P3 Gauges.

@802Avalanche try this, it's worked great for me thus far with 0 issues!

Thanks @Misfit_1122 I ordered this Auto Meter splitter the day before your last post. I ran it around town for a week or two loosely installed, and it seems to be working great. So I just bolted into place using the existing nuts on both sides of the OEM OBD2 port.

Without too much hassle, I should be able to unplug and bypass the splitter when I need to flash a tune or run a data log.

Unfortunately, the mounting tabs are kind of a flimsy plastic. So hopefully it holds up well enough.
