For those interested here are some pictures and video of the locker in action.
I have a video of it locking and unlocking but I seem to be technically challenged uploading the video.
Crap! The front locker still sticks in locked position. I drained both diffs, cleaned them real well, filled with new gear oil, drove around a bit to lube everything real good and then tested it and the damn thing still sticks in locked position. I tested it before putting the cover on and it seemed to work okay but that was with tires in the air and zero load. Jeep I almost 10 years old so no warranty. Any ideas before switching to ARBs? I would like to avoid that switch for a year.
Now that you know you can do it without taking the whole thing apart, how possible is it to run like that? You still have a working button for the rear, can throw on the front via the button if necessary, and when you get to the top of the hill you use a flathead screwdriver to pop it back again. A pain, but not unmanageable for a year I wouldn't think.
