The guys here are right, and wrong..... I have a 1997 LX450 without the locking front and rear. It does however have the center locking diff. that is set to engage when you set it to 4 low. The wiring is already installed for a CENTER DIFF. LOCK switch to be installed in the dash console next to the hazzard light button. I know this for a fact because I have done it to my 450. I was able to find a CDL (center diff lock ) switch out of a 97 Rav4 at a salvage yard. It was a perfect fit and function for its intended use in my 450. It allows me to engage my center diff lock in the high range....... Yes, I know that it isn't the same as front and rear lockers, but for the $3 I spent at the salvage yard, it gives me a huge function of my offroad vehicle that I didnt have before. there is another mod you can make that lets ou have control over engaging the CDL in 4 low with this switch as well... If you go to the Slee offroad website, they sell the switch and show the instructions on how easy it is to install..... a 10 minute job, and the 4 low, or the 7pin mod as they call it . Another 20 minute job. Now, my 450 has the security "tab" that I had to move to make space for the CDL switch, but that only took a minute to move it down by the rear heater switch. I hope that this helps clear the air a little about the origional post......
