TPS, do I have to have it?

Ok, I've just thrown the rusty's 2.5" lift on the KJ

On the stock tires and rims I have the TPS transducers.

If i take the extra set of tires and rims I have in storage and install, what will the TPS system do without the TPS sensors in place?

If you have TPMS and you take off the sensors you will just have a constant light on your dash.

The light looks like this

Any anoying buzzing or dinging assoicated with the light?

See if you can install the TPS transducers on your new set. I always find knowing your tire pressure comes in handy!

It will ding a few times when you first turn it on you let you know there is a "problem" but after that you will just have the light on. I know because I don't have my TPMS sensors in my wheels.

Also you can get the sensors on eBay for pretty cheap. If you can get the model number if your sensors you can search around eBay and I've seen full sets sell for about $100.

Pick up a $1 tire pressure gauge at just about any store and you'll be set.
