No lock up on the 1st gen OD trannys... On the 1st gen trannys its only two wire also. I BELIEVE its the rear wire. Find which one has power when the truck is running and set the toggle switch up to ground the other when you want OD.

what wire?

The harness going into the tranny should have one wire at 12v all the time and the other wire gets grounded out when you want OD.
