Default Locking hubs

So are there any available for our rides? I've searched around but haven't found anything yet.

I already know that, which is why I want to put locking hubs on it. I want to replace the stock full time hubs with aftermarket manual select hubs.

theres no aftermarket unlocking hubs for our trucks, and no o.e.m. either for future reference. if its that important, pull a varsis and do a solid axle swap up front which will give you that option. otherwise youre stuck with what you got.

Okay, that's what I didn't want to hear, but needed to know. And if only I had the money...
