when i use the four wheel on my 2002 f250 the front hubs wine very bad. this just started after putting 33x 12.50 on. after i take it out of four wheel and drive about ten miles the noise goes away. they are the auto/locking,and the truck has the dial on the dash not the stick,plus auto trans if that helps. anybody have any help or ideas thanks

I would check the needle bearings. Guzzle has a nice write up on how to lube them up. Im on a work computer and dont have anything saved on here. I will add the site to it when I get a chance unless someone has it handy.

Booya!

Welcome to guzzle's 4x4 Needle Bearing Maintenance Web Page

Just replaced one side of my needle bearings just last weekend. It was more of a whistle than a hum but once I replaced it and repacked everything, it went away. I have to do the other side as a maintenance item.
