Factory Front Locker? (1 Viewer)

[RotorHead04]

I was recently scavenging parts from my 1999 LC parts truck. I pulled the dash to take a bulb or two and noticed that it has factory indicators for Center, Rear, and FRONT diff locks??? I know all the LC's have to CDL and the 98-99 had optional rear diff locks, but a front? Was that some option overseas for a 105 series solid axle truck? If thats the case does someone have a picture of the factory switch? This new discovery has me wondering how to get that single indicator into my 2000 and eventually a front locker.

The 105 is basically a 100 body on 80 series underpinnings, and the 80 did have optional front and rear lockers. The switch is the same dial in 98/99 100, it just turns one more notch over for the front. It's the same one the 80 uses. Several people with aftermarket front lockers have used the OEM 80 switch to control their lockers.

yup. that's what I'm running. Switching to the rear locker also triggers a relay to fire up the little ARB compressor, then switching to the front locker engages the front ARB. here's your pic:
