I'd love to take all the credit but the fact is that another poster came across this problem and put up the solution a little while back.....all I did was direct you to the posts.:p
There is a wealth of info available in this forum and it really is invaluable when you need it. Even if you can't find anything, some of the folks here really go out of their way to investigate and help you out.....can't speak too highly of them, makes the place a goldmine of info.
Anyway, glad you got it all sorted.:D
Cheers
Mick
Mick I didnt find the other posts . But you will still recieve the accolade lol You pointed me in the right direction . I could have spent hours instead of minutes trying to nut it out . Yes I agree there are people on Aulro dedicated to help others . Thanks again George
Great info, explains the noise when things get bumpy too!
Anyone got ideas for an easy at home mod to engage CDL. I would love a propper unit but dont have the cash ATM.
As said above ETC works best by increasing throttle - as SOON as you back off even slightly the ETC stops actively working. Also having stock or similar pads and good brake fluid makes quite a difference to how effective the ETC is.
Cdl does make quite a difference because when locked there is always a min of one wheel turning at normal speed and by positive mechanical means on each axle even before ETC has to work.
I would avoid electrical actuation of the CDL...mechanical is the way to go. Just a simple t handle push pull cable on the transmission tunnel is as simple and effective and reliable as you can get.

I know of a member who made a bracket to fit onto the spigot.Quote:

It sits over the chassis and is activated by reaching under the sill as required.
You have to think early in mud or river crossing though;)
This is also a pretty good option:
