How do you do the wiring for 2wd low?
Does this work for the electric t-case?

traced wire from switch on the transferebox into car mine was a blue wire with black trace just cut into that put a small bit of wire and a switch in under handbrake lever so when i turn the switch on it cuts power to the switch in the transfer box so when selecting low ratio the vacum hubs do not opperate,not so sure on the electric trans box's although ive got no doubt its most likely possible.

Yep it was a really good trip, (I left the Jimnybob at home and was co-pilot of a Monster Pajero for the day).

Once again Gaz took the little Jimny out to play with the “Big Boys” and made it look easy . He skated through one very challenging lane with ease then had to sit and wait for a Monster Paj to be recovered on the same lane…….I’m not saying who was in that vehicle. :whistle:
