Lets rule out a few things. If the the transfer case (4wd drive lever) is in Neutral, the truck will not move, even if you are in drive. You should be able to push vehicle in this condition (Parking brake off). With the front end jacked up on stands and the hubs in free position, you should be able to turn the front axle shafts without the wheels turning. If the wheels turn, then the hubs are not unlocking. Try these tests first. You may even be able to turn front axle shafts without jacking up truck. Just reach under. Let us know what you find out. Hope this helps.
