So, I have a 3 rail with JType ready for installation, relatively speaking.
When
I got it, the forward switch was mounted on the right side. When I was checking
its operation it appeared to not lock out the proper gears and I switched it to
the other side where continuity check seems to indicate it is doing that. Can
you confirm the left - right location of the OD lock out switch?
