Imagine this if you will........12 inches deep in mud, the front wheels won't turn and the rear axle is, well, buried. I couldn't possibly imagine myself changing the front hub to get out [ not that the Sporty wouldn't do it ], just that by this stage of the process I would have drank way too many beers <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> to be able to even think about changing a hub. Why not just lock them in before hand [apart from the diff-lock/hard steer scenario]?<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Don't feel bad, I'll probably love your idea this weekend when I "intentionally" get bogged and pray for a lock of some sort. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" />
Now, are you talking about about the air operated hubs or the manual ones that have to be reversed before they disengage? [ how does that work by the way?????]
