Indeed.
I stand corrected. Warn and Mile marker have allens.
I can't imagine many folks are left on the stock set of ford hubs.

I think the OP is still using factory because he said in the "auto" position.

To BigNick98,
I think I remember reading that the hubs require vacumn to both lock and unlock in auto. Before you tear everything apart check and make sure you don't have a vacumn hose off or leaking.

You are correct Sir. Looks like my advice is on par with my reading comprehension!
