Bought this 84 ramcharger with the original auto lock out for 4x4. some guys say their bad others like them. I here you have to keep them greased good or they dont work. But for the money should i just put on a set of Mile Marker lockouts ($75)and be done with it ?? what do you think thanks

I would change to manual hubs also. Those auto hubs were a pain on the chevies when I worked there too.

When this truck was 1 week old one of those hubs kicked out pulling out of a mudhole. Down to the dealer the next day and they put a set of manuals on it for me. If yours are still on there they must have worked for 30 years already though?

Or, they never really got "tested". Lots of 4x4s lived a very cushy life. Gene

When they worked they were great but sometimes they would fail, I fould that they didn't need much grease to be happy
