At the stealerships it should be around 50 bucks. You could check junkyards also. You may try and call Clay at RiffRiaff. He usally has the hard to find stuff. Riffraff Diesel
Or you can try to contact PartsGuyEd.

I don't understand what switch you are talking about. The solenoid is what sends the vacuum pulses to the hubs to lock and unlock. Do you have a pic of this switch?
