Yesterday, I was putting in a home built POSI-LOCK. It came out really well.

About 15-20$ in parts and a couple hours time! I also found out why the vacume system did not work correctly. The "O" rings in the shaft that connected the fork to the housing where dragging badly. there is NO WAY any amount of manafold vacuume could have moved it!!

Check out the manual choke cables at the auto parts stores for a little cleaner appearance. I'll be using an aircraft cable on my D44 disco, it's pretty HD and locks in any position by pushing the button in on the pull knob.

 

Now you can weld the front diff and have a poormans selectable locker.

Where are you geting the aircraft cable? I was going to put a hand throtle in the truck, for trail use and also as a poor man's cruise control.

The throttle control cane with that style of cable. it isnt as easy to work with. Not that it can't be done, its gust easier with the adjusters on the cable ends.

i was a bit skepticul of the itty bitty cable, but the fork moves very easily, and shouldnt be forced anyhow.

 

The push button lock is very nice!!

 

I have a line on a used posilock, I may jump on if the price is right. For now, this works fine and is very inexpensive!!
