With the hubs locked in, you can then shift on the fly into 4WD (4H only!) without stopping. To engage 4L, you need to come to a complete stop as usual. An added advantage to manual hubs is you can now use 4H and 4L in reverse without the 4WD disengaging, stock autolocking hubs disengage when in reverse. You don't need to unlock the Superwinch hubs to use reverse. There is nothing you can or should do about the transfer case when using manual hubs. I have positraction on my Rodeo, so I don't need to use 4WD that much in the Winter, usually my hubs are unlocked (2WD) to save on fuel.


Good luck,
Dale
Thanks Dale, this is exactly the information that I needed. Your explaination is complete and very helpful. Thanks again.
