4x4 Hub problem

hey guys. I just put in a set of mile marker hubs into my 87 F250. Its got a D44 TTB front on it and after i engage the hubs and drive around in 4x4 the left side hub rotates around to the free position. what gives? any clue as to what would make this happen? how can i fix it or secure the hub in the lock position

It should be locking. Either it is bad or assembled wrong. Have you taken it back off to see if you made a booboo? It can happen to anybody.

I have only ever used Warn lockouts and haven't ever had a problem with them other then my own fault.

That is the same thing I have seen with my 20 years experience with manual hubs.
