toyota did come out with auto locking hubs. and from all reports i read, they would unlock at the worse moment...

ADD is not even part of the hubs. or visa versa.

it's the machanism that connects the driver's axleshaft to the differential.

ADD=auto disconnecting differential...
Just read my post again. I said the ADD is auto locking. I never mentioned the hubs/flanges. The AUTOmatic Disconnecting Differential sleeve connects the axle automatically when you shift into 4wd.
