grind/rubbing noise in front when in 4wd
i got the truck going and when i have it in 4wd it will make a grinding rubbing noise, it almost sounds like its coming from the passenger front tire area but im not sure. could there be not enough grease some where or somthing?.....any ideas?

Did you have the rotors off? There is a rubber bearing seal on the back of rotors that can get bent and cause it to rub/cut into the hub shaft. I have never actually heard of one making a loud noise tho...

no, it was doing it when i was going straight. it would make the noise and pull to that side at the same time. it sucks cause im kind of limited to tools and everything as i just moved out. im hopeing to take it to my dads this weeknd and take it apart

Almost sounds like a brake dragging. That might explain why it pulls. Does the sound change if you put on the brakes? Might be a problem with your locker and just the right side is locked. Try unlocking the right hub and locking the left hub and see if the left one is working.
