Engine break switch for stick shift

[EastTexasDiesel]

Have had my 2002 for about 1 month. I want to move the Jacops engine brake switch from under the stearing column to the stick. Any ideas on the best type of switch and where I can get one??

An electronic two speed switch would work great.



One came on my US Gear OD and then with my brake a friend attached a braket to the OD braket and installed a $10 Pull-Push switch from Car quest. CAUTION Some switches Rattle w/ truck vibs My OD one doesn't the car quest one does. I believe I read some gys got something from BD too.



Locally an Truck Air brake supply place I saw some. Or contact US gear maybe they'll ship you a shifter switch amd braket.



Works great 2speed at 9 o'clock on stick Large red knob. Small yellow slightly lower the 2 speed and at 6 o'clock. Love it.

junk yards

junk yards for medium and heavy duty trucks have the old trucks with two speed rear end switches thats what i use and it works great and cost me nothing. I am guessing that a lot of junk yards would sell the switch for almost nothing. Some may let you pull the switch for free you never know just check the switch with a multi meter for continueity before buying or taking home.



Good luck
