Bad hub
On my 05 350, I noticed the other day that my 4wd wasn't working, when I needed it of course. I quick test this morning and I discovered my PS hub is not locking in. I've read a lot of posts about it being the opposite, the auto portion causing a problem. In my case, it won't lock in in auto or manually turning the ****. I can lock it in, spin the wheel and the axle shaft isn't turning. The pressure on the **** is the same as the other side, not too loose or too stiff. Can I pull the hub assembly off and rebuild it? I watched a video about that, but not sure on how my issue would allow me to work on it.

Are they the original hubs? If so, you can pull them off and clean them up/regrease them. Kind of sounds like something may be broken though.
I replaced my 2006 F350 Ford hubs a few years ago with Warn premium manual hubs (I always manually lock my hubs during the winter anyway); was a piece of cake, and I'm no mechanic.
