Locking hub caps for a 4x4?

I have a 1999 Ford F350 Super duty 4x4 and want to change the wheels on my truck but it has the hubs that you lock in. Can i just put regular wheels on there. If I can will that keep it in four wheel drive all the time. Or do i have to look for wheels with the locking hubs on them.

Answer:

Portable fire extinguishers. Automatic fire extinguishers. Engine compartment cameras. Fire alarms and smoke detectors. Raw water pumps and hoses. Buckets. Fuses on all electrical. Proper wire type and routing. Spark arresters on engines. Proper alternator. Blower system and good ventilation. Proper re-fueling techniques. There are a few pointers for fire protection in vessel. That was the question, right?
Above sound good, don't forget the Halon.
Let me guess. You have a bike with a gear system of first gear down and the rest up, and well, like f100 mentioned, you most probably got your foot on the pedal the toe end on the lever when riding so when you hit a bump it shifts back to neutral, I usually have my foot on the heel end so when I hit bumps sometimes I have the gears shifting upwards regardless of whether I want to change or not(natural physics of whacking a bump), but would be better(if not accelerating) rather than having it cut down to neutral, or worse still, 1st gear where you could land in trouble if not safe with the sudden cut down on the speed. If that is not the case, it is highly doubtful the gears shift back on its own, unless they're really screwed up or you tend to not shift them properly. Better option would be try not to keep your foot on the lever when you drive over bumps, or if that's not the issue, a trip to the mechanic is the only obvious choice. Hope that helps
