F350 4x4 Hub Lock Question
Sorry for the basic (maybe even stupid) question in advance. I am new to diesel trucks / 4x4s and I am trying to learn....
I have a 2005 F350 4x4 (DRW) truck. The front hubs have a "Lock" position and an "auto" setting. I have read the manual but not sure if I understand it correctly...? I currently have the front hubs set to "auto" and when I turn on the "4x4" **** in the cab, the front wheels engage.
My question is, when would I set the hubs manually to the "Lock" position?
-Thanks

Ok, thanks guys, makes sense! I'll try not to kill everyone with silly questions. But I grew up never doing anything to my own cars / trucks and over the last year I have started to do minor stuff myself, so far I have learned how to change my own oil, change shocks, installed a trailer hitch etc.... I know it's really minor stuff but for someone new to the auto mech world its a first step... I am trying to be more self-sufficient! Thanks for the help!
