thats teh rear stabiliser release lever, when you pull it, it lets the rear swaybar move around alot more for articulation.

if your vehicle has a difflock switch on the dash it will probably have a rear locker, the light on its own does not mean anything,

Cheers,
Jes

To go with the factory diff lock. Theres a solenoid thing hanging off the side of the rear diff. That will be a good indication that there was one at some stage.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
