Smile auto hub swap

Are there any Special precautions when swaping from auto hubs to manuals. I am sick and tried of the clickity click maybe, maybe not lock/unlock of these hubs. I know that I have to switch to a different spindle nut but I am curious if you can leave the hubs locked in and drive around without the push button transfer case locked in. I know you don't want to run on dry pavement with the 'fercase locked in. I am talking about the patchy snow and ice situations that would require occasional transfer case engagement. I am also looking for XLS ground effects or and other aftermarket kit that would be close. Thanks DR.

Running in 2H with the hubs locked is perfectly acceptable.
