Default 4 wheel drive knock

So I have an 01 Ram with a 5.9. When I engage my 4 wheel drive and accelerate there is a knock. I have no issues engaging or disengaging the 4 wheel drive, and when engaged the 4 wheel drive works there is just a knock. Any advice would be helpful.

Check front driveshaft and front axle u-joints.

Yep, just replaced the joints and the ball stud in my front drive shaft for the same reason.
