AVM makes manual hubs for the pajero/ montero. Check milner's offroad. Very decent hubs. Been using them for 2 years with no issues.

Just ordered a set for myself :) Anyone have a write up of how they install on a 2nd gen? Do I need any additional parts from the dealer?

No additional parts needed unless you lose a snap ring.

It's really simple to install. Take the old flanges off. Pull the snap ring off.

Ready the new hubs by taking the outer caps off. Install the hubs paying careful attention to alignment. (It won't let you miss up) put snap ring back on axle. Install outer cap. (These will strip very easy, they only need a few lbs of torque.)

Be sure to use lock tight and gasket sealer. It may be a good time to re grease the bearing while you're in there.

These hubs are good quality and I've put them through the ringer a few times. They've held up nice. I do still carry the stock flanges just in case though.

With the gen 2 CAD (central axle disconnect) system, when in 2wd the front axles still spin causing unnecessary wear on the axles, cv joints, cv boots, etc.

With these locking hubs, you can unlock to effectively disconnect the hub from the axle so that just the wheel and hub spins and not the axles.

Off road there are also situations where disconnecting the hubs from the axles could be beneficial like if the CV's break or get damaged.

so when you have these locked, thats the same as stock genny 2? All 4wd options can still be utilized when locked, like the AWD?
