yeah i have manual hubs on my truck. kind of a pain getting out and stuff sometimes..... but they are better than auto locking or ADD. there are some Warn ones in my pref. prod. magazine, but if you found some you like then... yup. i have a question about these myself... i was told to lock them in the winter, and going offroad i could lock them and switch to 4WD when i needed to. havnt had any problems yet.. but i havnt tried driving down the road with my hubs locked yet. is this okay? and do it in the winter. usually the roads here are pretty clear, with minimal ice and snow or anything, usually very dry. probably wouldnt lock em on this.

am i right about all this? thanks.
