    Step 1: Create a folder inside your mods folder named vehicles
    Step 2: In your new vehicles folder, create a folder named the filename of the vehicle your config is for. (Not the in-game name, the name the vehicle is in the files. If you aren't sure, tell me and I will help.)
    Step 3: Navigate to (C: ) / Users / [your username] / AppData / Local / BeamNG.drive / latest / vehicles
    Step 4: Locate the vehicle folder your config is in. (Again, if you aren't sure which folder, I can help)
    Step 5: Move the files named [your config name].jpg and [your config name].pc to the new folder you created inside the vehicles folder you made.
    Step 6: Create a new text file next to the other config files called info_[your config name].json
    Step 7: In the new file, type the following lines of code:
    Code:
    {
    "Description":"[Type description here]",
    "Configuration":"[Type name of configuration here]"
    }
    Step 8: Send the 'vehicles' folder you created into a compressed zipped folder named anything you want. If the new .zip folder is not already in your mods folder, move it there.

    I hope this helped. This method may be outdated, the last time I remember doing this was a year or 2 ago. If it doesn't work or you have any questions about any of the steps, please tell me so I can help.

    This method still works, it's basically making a config mod
