Default 4x4 clicking bad/clinking when engaged

Hey all, So basically I needed my lower bj's done. and noticed when i was oput 4x4 one day my front left side was clicking constantly.In 2wd it wouldn't. 2 weeks later I noticed it constant in 2wd. So yesterday i did the lowers and the driver cv axle(got from wreckers). Finally get all done and back together and drive away(2wd) no clicking all seems good. Last night we get ft + of snow and when i throw it in 4x4 and drive away it sounds like my clicking/minor clunking is back! My wheel beaing is two months old (from wreckers)..Splines on shafts and bearing looks good and greased them when put back together...any ideas!!! Thanks!

i think any driveline parts that were not replaced with NEW are just as suspect as the used part you took off, bite the bullet and fix it correctly with new parts
