New Truck Owner,key switch question

Key switch Help. Is anyone knowledgeable in installing a key switch in an AM 923 5 ton?

I would use a 4 terminal cole hersy switch or a cat switch for lots of years of service the cheep switches that napa and corquest sell just don't seem to stand up

I make sealed ones that plug in easy. Just drill the hole a bit larger. If you get your own it has to be one made for Diesel engine has to have run power when cranking or the fuel solenoid will not actuate when you crank.

Several ways to do it. One of the better ways is to leave the stock switch in place and just add a keyed battery cutoff. (Like a Cat key)

The batery cutoff is the best and most sure fire, but Thosemilitaryguys.com sell a keyed plug and play start switch.
