Scott, when you have the TOD off do the lights for the front wheels in the TOD display still light up?
I also run manual hubs/TOD off switch. Works well and I average 1-2 MPG better with TOD off and hubs unlocked. I did thorough testing last winter to check for MPG differences and it's always slightly improved with TOD off.

I have the resistor installed and I don't get a checklight, just some whacking illuminations on the front wheels. Typically, all three front wheel bars will light up and hold.

I ran just manual hubs for a while and I definitely recommend the TOD off switch. The t-case will still try to transfer power to the front wheels and you'll feel the loss of power if the hubs are unlocked. This was common for highway driving when accelerating... TOD would try to transfer extra power to the front wheels I would end up accelerating slower.
