Replied by facade on topic Re: manualy forcing standard hubs to lock
I think running locked hubs is a good idea.
Just imagining what must happen when I move the lever into 4wd at 20mph, because the propshaft, diff, driveshafts etc. have to instantly go from stationary to 20mph, whilst sitting in a pool of thick oil at -6 degrees makes me sweat.
No way can that be good for the teeth on the dog clutch.
(and the handbook says you can do it at 60!!!)
