DNE gear splitter problems

86' F250 6.9 L
I have a doug nash gear splitter under driver that shorted out and toasted
the switching relay and plug on the fire wall. I have thus far been un able to find any info on this drive or the relay to get replacement parts any sugestions?

It would be handy to get this fixed as this truck has 4:10 gears and runs
around 2900 rpm at 65 mph. With the under drive engaged it runs about 3000 at 55 mph! I would like to go with a higher ratio to get better milage but pull heavy loads occasionaly and may need the splitter after changing the ratio. Any suggestions on gearing would be appreciated.

Kelly, I used to get parts from a garage in McAllen texas. I bet he can help you out. If you dont hear back from me in a week, email me at bilder12(No Email Addresses In Posts!) and be sure to put underdrive in the subject line.
