From time to time my hubs keep spinning around from free to lock, especialy my left one. Any thoughts anyone.

Yeah dude, this is a common problem with this model. Known in the trade as "a prank". Someone's turning them, they don't turn by themselves.
These are manual hubs right? Make sure there's plenty of grease packed in it - only reason I could ever imagine them turning by themselves is if they are clean, lightly oiled, and are vibrating around. Still very unlikely.

Thanks fella's i think they might be light on for grease, and they seem pretty firm feeling so i don't think they are worn much.
