Front Axle Lock Out

In the past, I've seen kits available that would allow driving the truck in 4-wheel drive LO range, but locking out the front axle. The end result was the ability to drive in LO range in 2-wheel drive. Nice for backing and the likes.<br><br>Does anyone know where these kits might now be available? TurboDieselRegister had them years ago, but they don't seem to offer a &quot;Products&quot; link on their web site any more.<br><br>Thanks in advance.<br>

I feel like a kid waiting for Xmas.<br>Of course I orders a couple of go fast goodies while I had Al on the phone. : ;D ( But don't tell my wife ) <br>Opps !! never mind I didn't know she was standing behind me.<br><br>I'm sorry honey Al made me order them .<br>He said if I didn't he would come and take the kids.<br>But I did it anyways.<br><br><br>Whew !! Think she bought that ?<br><br>Oh ! sweety not the broom I'll send them back.<br><br>Gotta Go !!<br><br> : Eddie : 8)
