Re: Front axel engagement

When you have locking hubs in the free position they are not engaged to the drive axle. This means the wheels spin free from the axle assembly. If you have the hubs in the lock position then your wheel are engaged to the drive axle. You need your hubs to be in the lock position in order to use your 4wd. I believe when you are telling us that when you have your hubs in the free position and the tcase in 4wd that one of the wheels spin. This could possibly be from the force of the axle spinning fast enough that the wheel is catching some of that force causing it to spin.
I hope this helps.
