4x4 Trouble

Last night I took my truck out to test the four wheel drive in the snow and it didnt work. I moved the lever down into 4 low and only my rear wheels spun. I tried it in 4 high and the same thing happened. After moving the transfer case shifter through all its positions several times it finally engaged into 4 low. The truch has a Borg Warner 1356 transfer case and warn manual hubs. Any ideas as to why it is doing this?

Thanks.

Is this a new truck? Did you have your hubs turned to lock? Is there a front driveshaft connected?

I bought the truck about a year ago and the problem just came up. Yes, both of the hubs were locked and the front driveshaft is connected.
