Diff lock/unlock is independent of low/high/neutral. You can move the lever to the lock position at any time, regardless of the forward/backward position.

The USA and Japanese versions of the LT230 have an interlock to prevent changing between high and low in some conditions, but I don't think they have an interlock for the diff lock.

I used to lock the diff on the fly when I took short cuts to the carparks at work (big civil constuction site so plenty of places for a quick fang in the disco). I just made sure I was going in a straight line and i used to put in neutral aswell. Don't know if its bad for the transfer box but I never had any problems with it. I'm still trying to learn how to do low to high and high to low on the fly. I think its just a matter of matching the gear speeds but when I get board one day I'll figure it all out. I've got it in a driving book that came with the disco when new so that should help.

Try All Four x 4 Spares 4957 1117.

If you have done the part time conversion, I would recommend against using locking the centre diff on the fly, as it is no longer a diff lock, but the mechanism to engage 4wd.

Be aware that the lever does not directly engage the locking dogs. Although the lever may be shifted to the lock position, it relies on a spring to engage the dogs, when they line up.
