Please note: Drivetrain / Trim Spec: 4x4 (4WD) models equipped with Electronic Shift-On-The-Fly (ESOF), Power Windows (PW), and Power Locks (PL). Programming: this GEM stores the truck's as-built option configuration, and that configuration is encoded in the part number — which is why the family splits by drivetrain and power group. Replacing the SAME part number with the same options is a straight swap; a different GEM part number or option set needs dealer as-built programming. Matching the part number on your original unit’s label is the zero-risk path — message us your VIN or label number and we’ll verify.
