Default 08 1500 4 wheel drive not engaging

I've searched all the old threads and couldn't find any help.
When I switch my truck into 4 wheel drive the actuator moves as it should. Front drive locks in but it won't lock the tires in.
I replaced the right front right wheel bearing not long ago and the 4x4 worked before.. I have yet to take the front actuator off to check if there is any damage.. the vacuum lines are all good.
The light for the 4x4 comes on but only blinks.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

Are there any diagnostic codes showing?

Nope, that would be too easy.
