Used 4 x 4 couple of weeks ago in snow and ice now I have some problems with, I think, my hubs. When driving in 2wd, my front drive shaft turns along with front wheels. Placed truck on jacks stands checked following. In drive, only rear wheels turn not front driveshaft or wheels. In 4wd all wheels turn. Rotating front wheels by hand only wheels turn, not axles or driveshaft. If I turn the front driveshaft by hand at about half turn the front wheels "engage" as if in 4wd. Can someone tell me if this means my hubs are gone? Should I try removing all the grease from them (I read this in another thread)? I would like to know before I buy manual hubs. Any help would be appreciated.
