Try the forum: www.newhilux.net
There are several posts associated with your concerns.
I thought this (non free wheeling hubs) was a typo mistake when wanting to find out the pros & cons of the hilux, but after research I found this is the case (I believe a retrograde step back to the old series 1&2 landrover).
Further research suggests that a free wheeling hubs kit is available from the US but costs several thousands.
Many Hilux owners are cheesed off with the constant where on all the where & tare on the front end's diff, axles, CVs, etc, let alone the extra fuel costs associated with the motor having to drive these extras.
After hearing this I went looking elsewhere for another 4wd ute WITH free wheeling hubs.
