I Prewired my '97 4runner for E-locker
My 4runner came partially prewired for the elocker. The dash light works, I just had to plug in my ECU and Difflock switch. Basically I was in the same boat as Phong. My approach to wiring the rest was a bit different.
I noticed that the smaller white plug for the rear wiring had the elocker wires in it.
As you can see I addes the remaining wires (only 5). I took the wires out of a 4runner which had the locker and the rest of the harness was already cut(roof was removed). I kept the connectors on both sides with the wires I needed and cut the rest of the wires.
For the rear I removed the 4 prong plugs for the abs and moved the abs wires onto the plug for abs+elocker. Notice the original plugs laying next to the new installed one.
I made a separate harness for underneat the truck from which I removed the abs sensor wires. I'll be having to runs with wires. I took my time and put the plastic jacket on it and put new electrical tape on it. Here is a pic when testing te elocker:
Now I just have to do the mechanical part this summer and it will be all done .
Also my gear ratio will be better for the 31" tires. Right now I think I have 3.90 and the new diff has 4.30.

Sorry about the large pics, I was somewhat excited to have the locker working electrically.
