The 1999+ models don't have hubs unless they were put on by someone.
The 4x4 is done by the air operated clutch.

I don't know WHAT "automatic hubs" that the previous poster was talking about. There ain't any! Just the air operated diff clutch to engage the front axles / wheels.  ;)

Edit: Oops. I just noticed that the issue has been already addressed.  :-[

I guess that's why I see no mention of them in the manual! Back to being sad about having to remove the diff again :(

The reason there is no mention of hubs is that the stock vehicle is not fitted with them.  It has drive flanges which lock the hubs permanently.  There is an air-operated clutch within the front diff which engages when 4WD is selected.
