FX4 question
Two of my good friends, who are also brothers, both have FX4 EgoBoost SCrews. One has an '11, the other a '12. A question we need answered is can the brother with the '11 do something to engage the Elocker in 2wd like the brother with the '12? It can't be as simple as putting a '12 switch in the '11 I'm sure, but is there a way to do it? I searched, briefly-I'm not going to lie but I made a halfassed attempt nonetheless, and didn't come up with anything. We were discussing this while we were doing airbags and a 2" LK on brother#2's truck today. Thanks in advance to the F150 gurus.

He will need the 2011 Raptor switch and the 2011 Raptor TCCM. The Raptor TCCM must be for a 2011 or 4Low won't work on his 2011.
The TCCM is located in the passenger side kick panel above the fuse panel.

Whats that going to set him back, roughly? Thanks for the reply NASSTY! 
EDIT: Maybe Mr Seekins can put this in the common mods section? Not that its a common mod but easily referenced?

Here is the answer I was looking for, thanks to the other guys on F150Online. Not sure if this will get me in trouble... Bing search turned this up

The cost of the 2011 Raptor module is: MSRP $196 Tasca price $129.73
Some guys tried the 2012 module from a non Raptor which costs about $50 and 4 low didn't work.

maybe this is a silly question ...
why would the switch and TCCM out of any 2012 so equipped not work? Perhaps the parts are cheaper for something not intended for a raptor?
just askin' the question ... maybe noone has tried?

I heard the 2012 non Raptor 4x4 module has worked for some people with 2011's and others 4 low wouldn't work. It may have to do with the build date on the 2011?? Maybe something changed on later builds?? 
Anyway, that is why I posted the part# for the 2011 Raptor module. I didn't want to risk the other module not working for somebody.
FWIW, If your doing this mod to a 2010 you will need the module from a 2010 Raptor.

Man I wish it was a little cheaper. I think I would leave mine locked all winter. Most intersections around here are slick as snot because exhaust dripping out and freezing when people take off from a stop. But then 10 yards past that it will be all completetly dry pavement. So I would hate to run 4wd all of the time on it but I could see having the rear locked would not be as bad.

Alright. lets go a little deeper.
My truck for instance is not equipped with a locking diff as it's a 3.31 axle from a 2011. What would it take in addition to the parts listed above to make it a locking diff?
