Locking hubs??
I just bought a new 2003 f-150 supercrew fx4, and was wondering if it would be a good idea to install locking hubs, I don't know much about 4x4 just that on a jeep my dad had he put on warn locking hubs. I get the truck tommorow night, one happy camper!!!
Thanks

Locking hubs??
The '97 and up F150's do NOT have a front hub mechanism like the earlier models. You have an offset, reverse cut, 8.8" differential mounted in the front. The axles are flanged just like a rear end, without hubs. The front axle is engaged in 4by at the diff by either vacuum or solenoid.
So the answer is: you can't install locking hubs, as you have none to replace.
