I am new to the CRD rabbit hole (someday I’ll buy a Honda so I can spend more time driving than fixing), and would like to know if anybody has explored installing manual hubs on the KJ. If it’s impossible for some silly reason, please go easy on me…I’m good at turning wrenches, just not so good sometimes at knowing which bolt to put them on.
I believe the answer is quite simple; (1) no one makes any conversion kits, and (2) the slight benefits, if any, gained by having them would be negligible as opposed to the costs and labor involved to install them. If you really must have them, it would involve modifying and installing a solid front axle conversion that supports selectable manual lockout hubs.
It is doable, but gets very, very expensive and labor intensive...
