Hi there is there any way of testing front free wheel hubs are engaging/disengaging while I have SJ up on axle stands.

Cheers Mike

Manual hubs yes. With the transfer box in 2 wheel high or neutral just spin either front wheel with the hubs unlocked and the opposite wheel or propshaft should not move. Then engage the hubs and turn one wheel and the wheel opposite should turn the opposite direction. Try this on either side. You can also chock one wheel and turn the other this should then turn the propshaft instead of the opposite wheel. This will also let you know the diffs working ok :thumbup: .
