Lockers/Hubs

[bidibronco]

I have the auto hubs wich some of you know already. I was wondering how hard it is to change them to manual. Also, if I put a locker or spool in my front end, will it effect my front end while just in 2wd? Another thing is, can you put a spot on a 9" for the speed sensor and how hard is it to install an E/Air locker? Thanks to all of you!!!

As far a locker goes someone else has to help you.

the hubs will be easy to change out, and with the hubs unlocked the locker will not make a difference in 2wd.not sure about air lockers or speed sensor 9inch.

No, not while the hubs are unlocked, but both are primarily for off road only when engaged. The advantage of the locker is that you could have your hubs engaged and it will act like an open differential when not locked. When locked though, it only likes going strait because it doesn't allow for the different speeds of the wheels when going around corners. It would be real exciting on the highway when locked.

Good luck,
