Also with auto hubs you need to select 4x4 before you lose traction or they wont engage. _________________ |

Mine do
Surely if the front propshaft is turning, they take up at the hub
I've got stuck in 2WD a couple of times towing the caravan of a muddy field, engage 4WD and driven off as if nothing was ever wrong! _________________ 94 Big Horn 3.1 Lotus Auto
