4x4 troubleshooting
I own a 1979 Ford F250 with a front HD Dana 44. I recently replaced axle shafts and u-joints and now my 4x4 slips? the driveshaft turns, the axle shafts turn, but they do not turn the wheels. are my hubs messed up or any suggestions? your help is appreciated.

Sure does sound like the locking hubs were not assembled properly, and are not engaging.
