[Urq] Diff. lock switch conversion for '83 Ur Q

[David Schaible]

if you are converting to the 85 type setup from an earlier style your best 
bet is to get the the switch panel and vaccuum line manifold and electrical 
connector from a scrap 4000k, you will need to run extra lines, and an 
extra wire for the oil temp and maybe get an oiltemp sensor if you don't 
have one to use the gauge.  it is no big deal.

jim haseltine used to have the vac diagrams online from the uk,  i have the 
diagrams of the 3 different switch setups and the electrical connector 
pinout for the 4000k style rotary switch if you need it.  hopefully some 
day i will compile it to a web page and post it to the knowledge base for 
all but not this week.....let me know if you want me to send the stuff to you
