So ive decide to replace my annoying auto locking hubs with a set of factory manual ones from a gu ute. When they where taken off the hub, all came off fine and looks good however my manual shows that they should have a bush and spacer in the wheel hub its self (egg ring looking things) however this didnt have them. The ute appeared to be a std mine spec gu. I have looked online and have seen some articles mention them and in another manual they weren't shown.

Should a gu have these or are they from an early model or a retro fitted item??

Nissan show them as a part on their computer system.

Cheers

What do you find "annoying" about the auto locking hubs?? Mine seem to have worked fine when I needed them.

Yes you will need them. They would have been left in the other car. You an buy them from Patrolapart or from the seller of the manual hubs.

I find it annoying that they try and lock them selves on while driving and the biggest thing is i want to be able to put it in low without 4wd for backing my car trailer, camping trailer and boat around in tight spots.

MudRunner, the reason i ask is that the car didn't have them in it so i kinda started worrying. I also don't want to fit parts that might be damaged coz some fool left the bits out.
