You don't need locking hubs. Do you want locking hubs?

As mentioned above, locking hubs are fully optional. They can save wear and tear on the front end during daily driving. But they are by no means required. Jeep haven’t even sold a vehicle with locking hubs in thirty years.

The bigger issue is getting an adapter for the 241C, drive shaft made up, and potential vibrations from running the offset rear axle that was used with the BW1339 with a center output t-case.
