Options when there's no Center Diff Lock (CDL) BUTTON?
Hello,
dumb dumb dumb newbie question! If a '95 Land Cruiser doesn't have the center diff lock button/option, what would it take to add it? I've been wanting to get a nice Cruiser for a LONG TIME and I've finally found what I hope is "the one." It's a '95 fully loaded with most options but it does not have the center diff lock BUTTON.
Is it just a matter of buying the button and hoping the wiring is already there, or are we talking about swapping transfercases or worse?
I thought I read somewhere off this site that if a center diff lock button is not present, that the diff still engages on it's own if you shift into low range. Is this true?
Thanks for the help!

BTW--I've owned approximately 25-30 Toyota pickups and 4Runners over the past 15 years and will be getting a LC shortly, be it this '95 or not. I currently own an '85 x-tra cab 4x4 with 33's and a '90 4Runner with 35's. Oh, and I can't forget the wife's '92 Camry but I didn't put a lift on that one I can't wait to start using this board! Flame me for being a newbie if you must, but I'm very excited to finally get a LC.
