    CDL options

    Hi, Im planning to put a CDL in my 99 Disco. There seems to be a few options available and was wondering if any one new which one would be better.
    Option 1 - Switch located on the dash which apparently uses a small motor to operate.
    Option 2 - Push/Pull lever through the floor
    Option 3 - Connected to the High Low shifter
    If anyone has had any expirence with any of these options, any comments would be a great help.

    There are lots of posts on this,,
    and nearly as many opinions

    The complete linkage out of a wrecked D2A would get my vote now.

    When I did mine 3 years ago D2a wrecks were a bit thin on the ground,, I put the AMV selector in and have had NO issues.

    G'day,
    we went for option 2 from LRA.
    Comes through in front of cubby box under drivers seat.
    Simple cable so not much to go wrong.
    Easy to use when bush.

    Thoght was if cable binds or bracks can crawl under and do manualy.
    Spend time to double check hole in floor is in correct spot(If you go with this).
    Do at home job if your handy on tools.

    Cheers

    Ditto here, fairly simple installation. If doing it over again though, I would go option 3 for the factory look and function.

    Once engaged the CDL will work in both Hi and Low.
