They are just as reliable as manual locking hubs IF you kept the maintainence up on them

I have personally never had a problem, but i know what is in the system AND i keep up the maintenance but i still prefer the piece of mind knowing theres only one link in the chain rather than the half a dozen the autos have.... anyway, we are drifting.... anyone know where i can get some?

I have some. Good condition ( rebuilt/ greased). and I have some hub spacer rings. If you can wait till after new years I can get some new bolts that are long enough to work with the spacer.
$160 posted.

Sorry to hear that.
But if $50 a FWH plus $50 for the rings and SHCS's and $10 postage is too rich for you then I guess I can't help you.
Rebuild..... New springs, O-rings and detent ball, grease and assemble.

That's a good price, a local wrecker near me wanted 80bucks EACH hub...
then I paid 60 bucks for the adapter rings....
So i paid $40 per hub plus $20 postage from Want33's..... but mine didn't come rebuilt or greased, gotta do that myself.
