Default 06 4x4 problems

I have an 06 f 150. We got about 12 inches of snow so I need to use my 4x4 and it is acting up. When I engage it, the 4x4 high light comes on and it will engage and work fine when it is not being worked hard. But when I go through allot of snow or accelerate fast it slips back into 2 wheel drive and makes a grinding sound. I replaced the IWE solenoid thinking that would fix it, but it did not. Not sure where to go from here. Please help!

Likely your IWEs or hubs or both are bad:
