if you don't have them you don't need them
unless you want them for better gas mileage but the cost for the conversion wont pay for it self

Not on a modern Jeep, but they will probably work on some of the older ones. My dad had an old 70's Cherokee which had the manual lockers like those on it.

Hubs are definitely cool. I even had a set on that big old Dodge I told you about. But the American Jeep customer,(read soccer Mom) demanded more and more convenience. So Jeep redesigned the front to have an automatic hub of sorts, It is called a front axle disconnect and operates automatically when you shift into 4WD. I like hubs too, but to put them on these redesigned front ends is expensive. i think I could do it if I got into my friends wrecking yard for little money, but he is far away. For what it costs, it is not really worth it in my opinion.
