That’s a beautiful truck! Wish I could keep my ‘17 250 that clean, but it sees too much time on the farm. On a side note, I did run it through the car wash for the first time in about 3 months! You’ve got an amazing truck! Enjoy it!!

@brentadams646 Do your warn premium black hubs lock automatically when you want to go into 4wd or do you have to get out of the truck and lock them manually?

I don't think the warm hubs have the vacuum line like the stock hubs. I was trying to figure out if it's a worthwhile upgrade. I love the black look but I don't want to have to get out in the middle of a snowstorm to manually lock my hubs.

The warn hubs are manually operated, so you would need to get out of the truck to lock them. The vacuum line that actuates the auto hubs needs to be pinched or plugged so that it doesn't continually run trying to pull a vacuum while the truck is in 4wd.
