I am wondering, what is the proper operation of the diff lock? I have no owner's manual, so I am uncertain. Do you move the lever to the left, or up and down?
Thanks

Bryan if the truck has not been used in diff lock or low gear in a while the shift will probably be very stiff.. good idea to climb under the truck and spray the linkage with some sort of penetrating oil... Also do not use diff lock on dry pavement.. only in snow or off road..

In normal operation it whould be all the way to the right and all the way down?

High unlocked, is to the right and aft of the truck. (i.e. lower right hand corner)

There is a compartment under the drivers seat (just like the one that houses the CD changer on the passenger side) you might try looking there for the owners manual.
