Does it drive OK on the road
Yes, it drives ok on the road without clutch slipping(not heavy trailer or caravan). Even with the van it would go ok when moving forward.
Reversing tend to aggravate the clutch or something and gives out that strange smell, which isn't exactly the clutch burning smell(I"m used to the clutch burning smell)

Sorry mate, I didn't understand that first bit. It's manual locking hub. I can't engage the front wheel drive without moving the hub lock knob to lock position(in the middle of the front wheels), or can I?
Without engaging the hub lock, the front CVs would just spin themselves without spinning wheels, won't they? Correct me if I'm wrong.
It also says in the 4WD engage guide(sticker on the sun visor) that I need to lock the hubs first before switching to 4WD. I've been told not doing so can damage the hub or CVs or something like that. I'm not sure if that's correct.
