Auto locking hubs

[sunnyc123abc]

Hey, i have auto hubs on my 84 blazer. I know they suck, but i can't afford to buy manuels right now. i was just wondering if there is anything i could do to strengthen them, im just doing some light offroading nothing crazy. thanx

start savein your money for locking hubs and wheel the auto's untill they pop

for real. I never had any problems with mine, I just changed em cause I wanted to

manuals were only like $80

When I frequented the wrecking yards more, I always kept my eyes out for older trucks with the yellow knobbed Spicer hubs on them. Picked a pair up for $20, and never let me down, unlike the auto's.

When you REALLY need 4wd, as in you are stuck, they will fail you.
