This happens now and again on 4X4's. You must not continue to operate it on normal "dry" surfaces until you disengage these hubs. Permanent damage will result. First thing to do is make sure you are on wet, loose gravel, sand, dirt, etc. Switch transfer case back to 4Low. With steering straight move a little forward and without hitting the brake slip in neutral allowing truck to come to rest by itself. Switch Transfer case to next position, I assume 4low. Place in drive and drive forward and backward until you feel it come out of 4 low. You don't have to drive it crazy back and forth, just 5MPH normal back and forth maybe 20 feet forward and 20 feet backward. It's good to allow the truck to stop by itself allowing the hubs to spin freely then placing in reverse doing the same. Apply brake, repeat until unlocked. You may find that if it is not unlocking, try to push lever back into 4low, power on, the release accelerator, switch to 4high all the while it is drifting and gently power on again. If you drive on solid surfaces ignoring the driveline, you will bind the axles and destroy some element of your drive line...The weakest points first. Hope this help and do not forget to rate this high if it helped you.
