After awhile the armature plate will gain slight magnetism from being around a magnet so much, this will cause your 4X4 to be very erratic. You really can't do harm to put new armature plates in when you service these hubs. Although if you would like to try and use what you have hold your armature plate to a piece of steel and see if you can feel any magnetism at all, it will be minor, if you can you either need new ones or you can try a suitable de-magnetiser.

Axle nut not torqued correctly or residual magnetism would be first.
Are all of your tire pressure set correctly? That machine had 1 inch larger front tires to keep the AWD clutch overdriven. If the fronts are soft or or rears overinflated you can get closer to 1:1 speed ratio. Well with another sip of coffee and a few more braincells working.... it wouldn't matter with AWD off.
