After the problems I ran into with the center diff lock slipping on Jake's 80 series after removing much the front shaft, I decided to order a center-diff lock switch.

The ones that are factory marked as diff lock switched are around $60 as they are non-USA parts.

Some genius on Mud figured out with a little mod (clipping out a plastic tab) that the hazard switch from various Toyota vehicles will work in its place.

I found one for $17 shipped on Mud.

It is literally plug and play. The harness is back in the back of this section taped up with a dummy end cap on it that sends the signal back to the harness keeping the diff unlocked unless you are in 4 Low.

Check it out on the upper left of this picture.

Also, see the bottom of the panel, I have factory fog lamp switches for my 2 sets of lights on the bumper.

Little things.

Jeff Old is fine fella. If anyone is looking, he will be honest about his truck. I saw it at Gilmer in January and it is a very nice truck. 144K is pretty low miles too.

What color is it......im rreeaaall partial to the green...i had 3 runners in the green and love it or black or grey.....i refuse to even window shop for white with all the ones in the club.

Dark Green or Black. Dark for sure.

I would not make color choices on the Cruisers in the club as you are still on double-secret probation.
 
If I don't see another dark green 80 again in my life, it'll be too soon. JEEBUS. 2 of the 4 I've owned as well as countless friends who's I've wrenched on...
