Hi
with auto hubs set on auto , no you cant spin the front tailshaft as the hubs will " auto lock" if you dont turn the shaft, the hubs wont lock.

What model/motor/box/tire/lift is this thing?
if its Petrol with larger tires, then its standard.

Gooday, i removed my auto hub gadget and you could turn your front shaft. Obviously when you lock in your hubs manually you cant turn it. I replaced my auto hub gadgets so you dont have to get out for those not so very difficult drives
