Manual locking hubs wanted

Post by Forest »

Im looking for a set of manual locking hubs. Front right auto hub has a clicking noise when working hard so guessing its time to replace it so want to change to manual hubs.

Cheers

Give the hubs a good clean and lube, and remove the auto mechanism, and they should function perfectly as locking hubs. It's a really simple mod. There are photos somewhere on this forum
