Is there any way to unlock a free wheeling auto hub without removing the entire hub assembly.

My passenger front hub is stuck in the engaged position and I need to know if there is a trick that can be done to disengage it without complete disassembly? Like I said it is an auto free hub.

I suspect its stuck due to corrosion or a broken spring or something but I do not want to disassemble it all in this weather so I am hoping someone knows a trick.

Its is hardly drivable because it is pulling so hard to the right.

I am assuming its the hub because it goes away if I engage the 4x4 but comes back after I put it back in 4x2

Is there any way to disengage it manually?
