Automatic vs. Manual Locking Hubs
I have a 1996 Ford F150 XL 4.9 2WD and I need to replace the front rotors, calipers, and pads. I'm sure this is a total noob question but how can I tell if my front disk brakes have the automatic locking hubs or the manual locking hubs? From what I've been seeing it seems like the automatic locking hubs are on the 4X4 variants and those hubs have screws on the outside of the dust cap. I just want to be sure I have the manual locking hubs before I shell out money for the wrong hub locknut socket. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
