Should i just leave my front hubs locked or should i unlock them and will it stay in fourwheel if i leave them locked?

If 4-wheel drive is not needed, you should unlock the front hubs. Yes, the hubs remain locked even if your front transfer case is not set to 4-wheel drive, and this can be very hard on both the hubs and transfer case.

How do you tell if the hubs are locked on f350?

Most trucks with locking hubs have little switches on the front tires, int he center. Depending on how far they are turned, the wheels will be locked or unlocked. If the 350 is less than twenty years old, you probably don't need to lock the hubs yourself, it will be automatic when you shift into four-wheel drive.


Do you have to unlock the manual hubs on a 2006 f 250 super duty that has a 2-4 wheel drive selecter switch on the dash?
