Locking Hubs?

hubs

never seen or heard of a failure from not locking the hubs. There is no bearing at the top of the swivel only a bushing which is normally greased. Besides the axle shafts still turn some. If you arent using 4wd, you dont need to own a rover anyway.

dam! that's sassy. i had unlocking hubs on my very strong V-8ed Scout, and it was recommended to use them. in first gear that Scout would pull a President off Mt Rushmore, so is the NADA 6cyl too much for the hubs Highmile has? aren't there Fairley ODs on a lot of Rovers, incl Sixs?

aren't there Farley ODs on a lot of Rovers, incl Sixs?

Yes. You can still buy them as an add on to this day.
