they are locking hubs. but if i am correct ( which im probably not ) they have a little cover dinger on them, like a lugnut cover.

no such thing as a dumb question.

You need to look at the lockouts a little closer they wiil either have auto & lock or lock & free. If they say auto & lock then you have vaccum operated hubs when they are in the auto position. I hope this helps. Any more ? I will help all I can.

the words have prabably wore off... is the 4x4 activated by a switch inside (laywer/doctor style) or do you have to pull on that little old lever on the floor?

you have manual/auto hubs which means they can be activated either way although they have a tendancy to stick one whay or the other, I replaced mine with warn manual hubs it's a bolt in swap.
