lockout hub removal

what would it take to remove the lockout hubs from my d44? ive got an np205 transfer case and id like to just use that to select 4wd and not get out to lock and unlock them, or maybe swapping in a np203 and converting to full time... planning a front locking diff and will have the whole thing apart anyways... but what do i use to seal the ends?

Why not just leave them locked? Then you would ony get power to them when t-case is engaged. The whole idea of having locking hubs is so you can relieve that stress and wear on the drivetrain when not needed.
