Smile Manual locking hubs

While greasing the front end of my EX today I noticed that the front driveshaft turns when the wheel is spun, while the auto locking hubs are in auto. I would think that the wheels should free-wheel in auto?...........am i wrong? If so then I know if i install manual locking hubs i will increase my mpg. Does anyone know the right part number for WARN manual hubs for dana 50?

In auto, the wheels should turn free... Try looking through this thread... it starts at my post. I think it may help.
