Wow!
What a great sticky! My auto hubs are wonky, and I'd sure like to convert to the reliable manuals. But I'm going to try cleaning the autos 1st. Just wish I'd done this the past summer, rather than find out when there's 6+ inches of snow on the ground...lol.
Sub'd to study in a bit more detail later.
This maybe a dumb question, or if asked before my apologies. But I've never really though about it since I've always had auto locking hubs...
If I were to switch to manual hubs would I then be able to run in 2L? Or would the front axles turning cause damage if the hubs are unlocked?
My old HiLux 4x4 has manual transfer case, and I've used 2L many times in it. It'd be nice to have the same capability with the X.
This is a great board, btw. Thank you to all members for providing such a helpful resource. This internet thing is amazing!
