They will only flash your PCM/TCM to the latest version accordance to your VIN#,a 2wd VIN# will not get a 4wd program.
and if you send it giving them a 4wd VIN???

It may not work when they send it back,it will not work if you have the OEM alarm they may not touch it with 2 different VIN #'s,one that is already programmed and the one you give them.
I didn't know this things had oem alarms, I only have keyless entry, but I see what you are trying to say.
o btw o talk to a friend about this, he owns a mecanic shop, pretty good size shop, kind of like a firestone, and he was in a hurry, dude is always busy, but he said his into buying a "flasher" within a month he said that might do it since it has dealer softwears or something like that, he said, don't worry worst case, will take it to a jeep dealer, I know somebody that would do it for me.
so...I don't know, hopefully later on when I am ready it would be possible

My personal take, short of buying a 4x4. Then find/buy a insurance wreck and have all the goodies to xfer over. There are gonna be parts needed that no one will think about till ya need them. That way you can swap all the computers over. Just make sure you keep the vin from the donor handy. The next owner is gonna need it!

I did not know my '06 had an alarm in it when I bought it. I only noticed it one night at work. The little red flashing light was a flashin its little heart out.

Just because you have the ability yo flash a PCM/TCM does not mean that you will be able to flash in the 4x4 file. There are different levels of "security" that jeep has encoded in to the files that only allow certain perimeters of the flash files be changed. A perfect example is tire size. Jeep has give the dealers 4 or 5 options for tire sizes on the KK. If you do not have one of those sizes, you are SOL. Only the factory can change the presets. Just because one thing may work on a KJ doesn't mean it will work for a KK.
On a positive note, you do not need new hubs............

Way too much trouble. You will run into so many headaches that you will wish you didn't even think of doing it.
If you are making payments on it, I think you may get in over your head and end up with a messed up libby, no warranty coverage and a lot of payments to make.
Now if it's paid for and you have money and time to burn, I will be curious to see how it works out for you. If it's not paid for and you don't have money and time to burn, I think you need to trade it for what you want.
