Cheers for the simple yet affective pictures and explanation.
I had seen the parts you pull out about 2 years previous and have not done mine yet.
I have had the buzzing / clicking happen a couple times.
I lock the hubs for a little, then unlock and she seems all good.
I am very aware mind you of not activating 4-wheel drive while on the tarmac, as I have seen the outcome on Land Rover 110s when the center diff is locked.
Even more funny when a driver has the power devider on a Mack activated.
Hilarious though, although the driver didn't agree.

Hey, thanks for this useful link . it explains why i was confused about it's workings. i saw a video about changing hubs and the bloke said something about a spacer. All makes sense now. thanks again.

Wow, who'd have thought. Just read up on FB and thought people were taking the p...
Might look into this little number. Great thread and nice easy instructions to follow especially with these pictures.
Thanks guys

I have the same thing as Roo72, But what I did was weld a little 75mm bolt to the side of the tube and it acts like a handle, And that has found a home in my drivers door pocket

leaving the outer part as a spacer defeats the point of converting them to manual as your removing only half of the auto cam assembly leaving it partly operable, this WILL cause issues if you like to engage low range with the hubs unlocked(reversing trailers etc) doing so with the outer half still fitted will cause the auto mechanism to be locking and unlocking as it rides up and down on the ring. if you must leave the outer ring in as a spacer grind it down until the raised sections are gone and theres nothing there for the auto locking mechanism to ride up and activate on

Hey guys,
I have a quick question, concerning my hubs, When I set them back to auto after a day of locked in fun, the next day or so when I look at them they are half way between locked and auto.
move them back to auto and they move again, by taking out the auto lock fix this and stop it from happening. My trol is a 2006 IV ST wagon.
Thanks

You need to reverse for upto 5m once you take the hubs back to auto assuming your in 2wd for them to drop out of lock.
-
Yeah I do that, but as I drive in two wheel drive the nuts move half way between auto and locked

Can some one please tell me clearly, what to remove and what to put back in when reinstalling the hub....
