Re: Early urq diff lock switch?

[John Karasaki <johkar@teleport.com>]

It does exist.  It was standard on the 1984 4kq.  It is not a DIRECT swap
however.  You need to add another vacuum line.  I don't recall exactly the
color of the plastic tubing and such, but if you have a Bentley manual, you
will want to route the lines exactly as shown for the '84 4kq.

Maybe someone on the list can tell you exactly what to do.  I bought the
parts to do it a couple of years ago, but never got around to doing it.

HTH.
