4WD Help!!!!

ok, soo, I just put in new hub bearings and passenger side auto hub..waste of money i know now... anyways.. I'm all done today and decide to test out the 4wd.... as I'm driving to the dirt I hear a clunk every once in a while around sharp turns....I engage 4H, and its works great like a champ...as I'm leaving I put it in 2wd....however my 4H/4L lights start flashing ---usually a T-case thing... I'm driving down the road and it feels like I'm still in 4wd. turning into a parking lot, I hear my tires screeching at about 5mph....

I get home, lifted the front of the truck, I spin one wheel freely, the other spins the opposite, I check the fuse under the hood for shift motor, its blown, but i replace it and still same thing......my first guess is the shift motor needs to be cleaned...but help me out? feels like im draggin 1 of the tires around every turn.
Are the hubs locked up or something?

Have a Ranger meet Frid...plz plz plz...help
