Good luck with your Vx trans swap you might want to look into a trooper with the manual trans has everything your looking for even a on/off button for the TOD system.

Yup, TOD works just fine, as does 4-lo (and low it is in first gear!) and his TOD on/off switch for some RWD VX fun! No idea if he ever got the Cruise working 'cause I never use it anyway and haven't driven the truck in a few months.
Sorry about never getting that wiring diagram posted. I found it, but my scanner isn't working for some reason. I can take some pictures of it if you think it might be helpful but it sounds like you are getting it worked out fine on your own.
Plus I'm a little busy with my own project. Finally got my garage cleaned out and started working on pulling my Dragon VX's blown engine and swapping in the 02 Axiom motor. Planning to do a write up on it when I'm done.
Another nice thing about the manual swap is getting a better crawl ratio because the AR5 has a lower first gear than our auto.
Stock VX crawl ratio: 2.86 (1st) x 2.48 (T-case) x 4.30 (axles)= 30.5
Manual VX crawl ratio: 3.75 (1st) x 2.48 (T-case) x 4.30 (axles)=39.9
Sounds like the difference is noticable???
