Do you have ESOF?

You can swap them out for Warn units no problem, but if you do have ESOF, you will no longer have the "auto" feature.

Are they the stock hubs (Auto / Lock)? Have you taken them out and cleaned them up? Try to turn the dial with them off the truck to see if the are seized up.

Talking

People seem to have so much trouble with Ford ESOF hubs that my local dealer has a special replacement parts department just to deal with this issue
