HELP me please!!!!!!

a few weekends ago i was heading up north for some snomobileing when my truck started making a weird sound. I would best describe it as a rubbing sound. It started out just a quick on-off, then alittle longer, longer the longest was what seemed forever but was maby 30sec. I pulled over looked around, saw nothing obveious decided to go back home. With the pass. window I could hear a poping/engaging sound when the noise started. pulled over again locked the hubs and no noise the rest of the way. Havent drivin' it much since but when i did (hubs free) the noise wasent as constant. only happened 2 times.
00' 250, 7.3, 76,000 replaced autos with warn premiums 6mos.to a yr. ago, shocks also maby a year old if any of you can point me in some sort of direction that would be great! thanks, Justin

Sounds like your new hubs may need some lube. The inner parts freewheel when disengaged so when you lock them it would stop.

As Highho said hubs may need lubed.
Also raise your truck up and chk front wheel bearings.
Take a look behind the knuckle area and see if the seal that rides up against the hub and bearing assm.is still in place.
this seal if bad will alow the dirt and water into the bearings and hub ,not good.
