take them off clean them out with degreaser/kero, dry them, lube them with a cap or two of engine oil refit and they will work a treat.

don't forget to work them once a month to keep them lubed internally.

happened to mine, good as gold now.

cheers, sloth.

oh and this advice is like an a**hole, every one has remedies oppinions others will say different or even use the search function. but hope it helps.

I'd convert the auto hub to manual/free wheeling only, it is relatively easy to do, it takes 10 minutes.

What oil are you using in the transfer case?

normally use tq dex III in trans when fitted with auto hubs as per service manual. too thicker oil and the drive shaft can actualy spin even in neutral therefore attempting to engage yer hubs.
