What's is with these hubs?
Hey, took a look at this truck. What are these hubs, are they ADD?

Edit- looking closer at that pic it appears those are just a hub cover you would typically see on the back of a rig.
Got a better picture?
If I'm not mistaken, those are auto locking hubs, the precursor to ADD 4wd engagement.
The auto hubs can be replaced with manuals

No that's the only pic I have right now, but can probably take better ones tomorrow when I go to see it in person. I will probably be able to tell if it's ADD or Auto hubs when I see it, just figured I'd ask.
I thought they may be Auto hubs too, but this is a '94 and I don't know if Toyota used them in '94. I would think they would either be ADD or Manual, but would assume Manual wouldn't have a cover over them.
I hope they aren't Auto hubs, those thing suck bad.

Yes, that's the permanently locked hubs with the Automatic Disconnecting Differential. I had the same hub covers; they are the standard ones with that truck.

Yeah kind of figured it was ADD with some ugly hub covers on them.
I agree Space-Junk...they look really dumb. I may have to swap them out with the ADD hub covers from my 4Runner.
This is a 5spd with the 3VZE. I was expecting it to have manual hubs since it's a 5spd, didn't know any 5spds came with ADD. Does that mean that it's the same Xfer case as my Auto 4Runner with the 3VZE?

What does ADD have to do with the transfer case?? I have the R150f tranny....it's standard manual tranny xfer case AFAIK...

If anything, it might be a sensor used to actuat the differential, but I am not 100% sure.
In case any clarification was needed, that picture above shows ADD hubs covered by a factory hub cover, which was used on the steel wheels.
Toyota stopped using Automatic hubs in 1988 in the trucks, and 1989 in the 4Runners
