Front Hubs was created by Mk1M4TT
Are the front hubs on my 2011 jimny free wheeling when in 2wd?
The reason i ask is i have just watched the video in another thread about them being fitted to the SJ as an option to save fuel, noise, mechanical wear and improve performance while on road.

As long as the vacuum system is working, they are free wheeling when in 2wd.

Yeah, you are better to chuck it in the bin and just manually lock the front hubs. or get some Aisin hubs.
