Did the 4WD work with ADD? As in all 4 wheels had power?
Manual hubs are bolt on for ADD so only 2 things could be wrong, ADD system was not working properly beforehand or your hubs were put together improperly.
Either the big spring on the hubs is upside down, flat part should be on the hub gear, which will cause the hub gear not to actuate or too much grease and the hub gear is stuck. This is assuming all the internal parts are there.

Wait, shouldn't they spin freely whether engaged or not? The only difference is when engaged your CV should be spinning as well, when not engaged your CV should not spin.

Well if your ADD didn't work before, putting manual hubs on isn't going to fix it.
Ok,It's been a while since I've had ADD but I'll try to explain this simply.
A. D. D. = Automatic Differntial Disconnect.
Someone correct me if I have this wrong. There is a vacuum operated shift fork on the side of the front differential that engages and disengages the cv axles, (well only one actually I think) from the front diff. Thus engaging and disengaging the front wheel drive portion of your 4 wheel drive. That's a bit simplified but you get the idea.
What manual hubs do is engage and disengage your WHEELS frrom the CV axles.
Thus putting manual hubs on does nothing to fix your 4wheel drive problem. Assuming that is what you meant by "Spinning freely???"

The 4wd light is controlled by a switch in the front diff. Check on the diff near where the ADD vacuum hoses attach and make sure the 2 wire plug is connected. If it's not that it could be the bulb.
