Welcome to the site..

If you gave ESOF then the hubs aren't technically locking units, they have 'auto' and 'lock' indicators, but the lock function is for a failsafe lockup should the ESOF not function..

Look at them, the 2000 F-250 that I had had the auto and lock positions clearly marked.

Manual hub locks have 'lock and free' on the dial,, ESOF has 'Auto and Lock',, yes they are technically a locking hub, but are not the same design and control.
