Just removed the front tyres from my recently acquired Jackaroo and lo & behold behind the nice chrome wheel cap there resides a fixed hub assembly ! I thought Jackaroos had auto free wheeling front hubs ?? Guess it's a trip down to ARB to get me a set of manual free wheel hubs.
also, did the late model V6 Petrol Jackaroos (2000 - 2004) ever come out as 5 speed manuals or were they all automatic transmissions ? I know the diesels were manuals.
Back to the mens shed for
Easter. Cheers Old Mal

Yes the wide tracks(last series) where available in 5 speed manual(son has an 02) But the last series unfortunaly never come with free wheeling hubs, stupid mistake really. One of the reasons Swmbo o3 is thirsty I believe is the lack of free wheeling hubs plus extra weight. My old 98 has free wheeling hubs.
Mal did you know they all so have restrictors in the y piece of the exhaust. It is just like a little baffle put their mainly for nvh reasons, but I have removed them on my 98 for better economy and power and a bit more noise under full throttle.
