Default 4x4 hub question

So on my 2004 F250 I went to check my hubs to make sure they worked good but i think they are stuck cause i cant turn them to lock them in. is it easy to change them over to the warn or mile marker locking hubs, or is it even worth it.

Why not take them apart and lube them? The best hubs in the world are still going to require some form of maintenance.

Warn does make hubs for your year. Plenty of people have switched over to Warn.

Ya i pulled them off and lubed them up the person that owned it before never took the solid hub cover off that he had on the wheels so they are rusted from all the water that got in there.

When I lubed up mine, I found that some lube on the axle spline helped things out as well.
