i have a 95 rodeo and the trails around here aren't too extreme and well, suck. i plan on using my rodeo for driving around town and hunting and the occasional mud spree. and for now my focus is in getting better tires. so until i get more money,some swampers(in the future) and a decent lift, will the auto lock hubs be ok? right now is stock everything so it sucks and wont be seeing much extreme time for now. and when i do decide to get manual hubs, are they a easy install or a pain in the ass?

No the suck. The first thing you should do is get the manuals. Call Matt up and get the warn hubs. The autos will become a problem if they are not already. They will lock and unlock when they want to not when you want them to.
They are very easy to install. Will take no time at all.

you can get old aisin hubs for dirt cheap. First thing i did on my trooper was swap out the autos, they are alright for snow and slick roads but if you start gassin it too hard through thick mud or whith one tire in the air they will give out perty quick.

Friends dont let friends wheel with auto hubs. They unlock and lock like was said above at teh most inopertune of times

alright. when i get my new tires ill get the new hubs. right now i dont do all the 4 wheeling i want to due to this stupid learners permit! but thats all over in 7 months so then ill get my new rubbers and hubs and get down to buisness
