2015 ram 1500 lock out front hubs

garryg · Oct 10, 2022

Does anyone know if there is a manuf or aftermarket company that makes a conversion kit to convert to lock out hubs for a 2015 ram 1500 4x4?
I have looked at the ram man outfit in Texas, but info and reviews seem to be less than good. Appreciate any info, thanks.

What is your need for lockout hubs? The front diff has an internal front disconnect that lets either side free spool so the amount of drag is very minimal. Your diff isn’t turning and neither is the front driveshaft. Unless you are planning on bypassing the internal disconnect

The auto locking hubs are way better than they used to be. No need to change over to a manual locking hub. With the design of the front system its not even possible, the old veh with auto hubs had a actual hub where the newer trucks have nothing

your hubs are bolted to the axle shafts and are splined. the disconnect is at the diff and works via the transfercase when engaged. the way they are designed you cant change to them. what info are you wanting to find? its on google youtube etc how they work. ford chevy dodge halftons all use a similar set up.

Thanks for the info. I was totally unaware of the internal disconnect. I found all the info I need. Thanks again
