A 4WD vehicle doesn’t always need to operate in four-wheel drive mode. With Lamda Free Wheeling Hubs, your vehicle can switch to 2WD, reducing unnecessary fuel consumption, engine load, and wear on drivetrain components. Mechanically activated locking hubs are activated by hand by turning a switch on the end of the axle. The advantage to mechanical hubs is that they are often considered more robust, and less prone to issues due to maintenance negligence. The disadvantage of this is that the driver needs to get out of the vehicle to activate the hubs.
Shop NowFreewheeling hubs, also known as locking hubs, allow the front wheels to rotate freely when disconnected (unlocked) from the front axle. This reduces mechanical resistance when 4WD is not needed. When engaged (locked), they reconnect the front wheels to the axle, enabling full 4WD functionality.
Our mechanically activated hubs are manually operated, providing robust performance and reliability. The driver can lock or unlock the hubs as required, ensuring better efficiency and control.
