O' and educate me on the auto locking front hubs, what's the scoop?


Don't worry about the mileage 'improvements'--keep it tuned and that's about it. These things are bricks and will only get so much MPG. As a side note--the skinny tires from the factory were there for a reason--MPG. Putting on a decent size tire/wheel will cut your mileage. Trust me.

As for the auto hubs--ditch them for a pair of manual lockers--$100 or so
