This forum convinced me to buy a jimny as my fisrt offroad car, and im shure i canget some good help here.Hubs dont lock. Light flashes. Hubs are ok, no rost under the car. Low gears do activate perfectly..lets make it short i know about the options....vacuums, solenoids etc...if i get samurai hubs from an accidented car here in albania(we all use this method for spare partshere)what do i have do besides installing some spacers? How good are these aftermarketvmanual hubs that i see on ebay and jimnybits.com .....i really dont want to repair the vacuum problem. Its so annoying. I dont have time to run from car mech to another one. Please help. I rely on this forum only...

all you need is the manual hubs from the samurai with the cone washers off the bolts & a set of spacers

The factory fixed hubs off a Vitara fit without spacers, it means the front axle is always spinning but that's no great problem other than slightly more wear and fuel consumption but I don't notice it on mine with them on!
