A MOVING TARGET IS HARDER TO HIT
Does anyone know of some good locking hubs to fit 04 or newer rangers? I had locking hubs for years and didn't mind getting out and twisting a knob. Just me maybe but I didn't seem to wear out stuff as fast. Heck I'm muddy most the time anyway and smart enough to get out and lock 'em before the games begin. Any thoughts or info appreciated.:icon_twisted:

You have a live axle, you're permanetly locked. If you want selectable hubs, you have to swap a bunch of things of an older ranger.

You would at least have to swap out your hubs and cv axles... if probably could do it for under $500 w/ new parts. then you'd have to buy the AVMs which are about $150, so say $650 for no real benefit? Not worth it.
