Can any one tell me if the GV ever had manual hubs from factory.

Also can i get the GV owners (preferably the air activated hub ones) to take a quick pic of their front wheel. including hub? Im testing a theory

gv's had a locking system in the diff centre, the hubs had no mechanism. some early vits had mechanical locking hubs, and jimnys vaccum locking hubs. normal vit hubs will fit.

I had superwinch manual locking hubs on my GV, part of the Calmini kit.

They are the same as Vitara one but I think they are the same as the Sierra too

Ok, you can get any Vitara free wheeling hub or COILY Sierra (not Leaf ones)
They fit without any mods.
When I had my GV I fitted coily sierra free wheeling hubs.
