Maybe the front axle lock is not disengaging which causes the axles to continue to rotate.

I was wondering if it wasn't disengaging. That's what it seems like. This might sound like a dumb question but is it possible for one side to disengage but not the other?

Check the actuator to see if it works. Also check the vacuum line that runs to it for leaks.
