front hubs & leafs
two questions. and i did do a search first but didnt get a good answer for either one. first, i have manual hubs with manual trans case and need to know what way is locked and unlocked on the hubs? i let a buddy use my truck and he dont remember if he unlocked the hubs or not and of course the markings are wore off. second, i want to lift the front up with a leveling kit and i am on a bit of a budget right now(wife). what do you guys think of the rough country add a leaf? or what do you recommend?

I put a Tuff Country add a leaf on mine and it raised the front enough to put 35's on with out problems. It raised it 1.75'', which isn't all the way level, but when I put a load in the back it sets level.

Also you can use stock shocks with this set up.
