    Ok, that's good intel. Thx!

    Agreed. I hardly noticed any difference with the larger tires and the 4.10 gears. And cruising at low RPM in 5th is really nice. My only complaint is occasionally taking off on steep grades (either backing into my driveway, or taking off at a steep red light). It would be nice to drop the truck into 1st, and be able to idle up steep grades.

    I called ECGS this morning. They do not have 4.30 gears. At this point I'm debating between OEM 4.10 gears and 4.56 gears.

    Thank you for all of your help!!!

    Just that it is possible to use the OEM two-locker switch from the 80 Series, tying into the standard gauge cluster. Non-elocker trucks from the factory have the locker lamp in the gauge cluster. If you have some basic fabrication skills (cutting sheet plastic and gluing) and electrical skills (required for the install in any event) you can use the OEM switch and indicator. :)

    Yes!!! I love the OEM look. You'll include the 80 series switch if I purchase both front and rear lockers, right?

    Yessir - part of the package. :)

    It would be really cool if you could add a "FR Diff Lock" light in the OEM dash gauge too!

    The light not on isn't enough of an excuse for me to go into the cluster haha. Although I'd like to change the cluster LEDs someday
