Default hub upgrade????

Ok so I have a 89 jeep cherokee with a 89 jeep Wagoner front d30 but the hubs don't unlock so therfore the axle shaft keeps rotating along with the driveline even when in 2wd
so that being said I was wondering if anyone Knew if I could get manuel locking hubs and bout how much they would cost

Your axle might have a vacuum disconnect on the passenger side tube. Depending on which transfer case you have.

The mile marker kit is like 800 bucks or for 1400 http://www.quadratec.com/products/16103_0010_07.htm A dana 44 swap would be cheaper but if you want one stock width the one from a 1980 and newer full size jeep wagoneer is pretty close in width.But bad its not a bolt in you gotta weld on all the mounting tabs and its a 6 lug.A tj dana 44 isn't a true dana 44 its more like a dana 30 with a dana 44 center.To have locking hubs on it would be the same kit.
