I would just pull the hub off and make sure it has grease in it make sure its not rusted up. It happened to me when I bought my sammy. A quick cheap fix it is only like 6 bolts.

its not the linkage if the front driveline is spinning.  check the hubs.  if you pull the hubs off you can see the end of the axles . see if there turning. if yes fix hubs. no fix spider gears or lockers

If it were me I would say hubs needed to be lubed or I would at least start from their.

Yup. I would also guess hubs.

If you need a set send me a message, I'm sure I have some spares around here somewhere.
