Subject:Syncro Diff Lock actuator question
From:Malcolm Stebbins
Date:Mon, 19 Jul 1999 10:55:51 -0300

For the past two years I have been thinking about how to 'Gerry' rig a syncro diff
lock activator for the one  that the PO broke off the tranny.  Only the activator is
broken off, the pin into the tranny is OK.

My thoughts are for something electrical rather than the crazy vacuum set up.
Someone mentioned that maybe Power Door Lock activators (or Power Trunk
Activators) might do the trick.

Any thoughts on if there is enough UUMPH in a power door/trunk activator to
push in the diff lock pin?   Is there enough room down there to position a
door/trunk activator?

Thanks,   Malcolm S
