Yes, the heater and all of the controls still work. I'll try to lock the hubs manually and see if that makes a difference. I don't have a vacuum gauge but I sure plan to buy one (any suggestions on a particular one?). I bought the truck used and it already had aftermarket wheels with caps that cover the hubs so I'll have to find the right size Allen wrench to get those off before I can try to lock my hubs. I'll be happy if that fixes my problem but I'll still be disappointed that my big fancy truck can be hampered by a little cold weather.

You have to manually turn those hubs and run them for at least 10 miles a month unless you actually use the front end during the month.

Good call Scott. And Razor - it could be as simple as they just need to be exercised. A vacuum gauge is a vacuum gauge pretty much.
