Took ya advice mate, bought them of Jimnybits on ebay for some reason I couldn't purchase directly of their site, and the chap said I don't need any spacers or extras, so they came with gaskets bolts and washers seem pretty solid, just looking for a step by step guide and plan on doing hub conversion tomorrow

I might be misunderstanding but it seems to me you should forget the auto box selector. Low on the auto is not related to any four wheel drive. The others will give you advice on checking the actual four wheel drive but with it in N (no good in D/P etc. as it locks the tranny) there are checks you can do with it on jacks (not ramps as you have to turn the wheels lol) to see if the four wheels are working as one!!

Yes but only very lightly. It is very easy to have too much grease and lock them in any position. Just a dab'll do ya.
