IMO, a linear actuator would just need 2 wires to the switch and 2 wires from the switch to the linear actuator, about the same as you would need for an electric diverter, but you only need an actuator, not an diverter valve and a cylinder.

Yes, the hook-up is quite simple.
If OP has an unused and available SCV that certainly works as well and probably would be cheaper to buy a small hydraulic cylinder and hoses/fittings. But if you have to add a selectable electronic diverter to an existing SCV to split functionality then that is WAY more expensive.
