Manual locking hubs?

Folks, I am once again in need of some wisdom ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thought I had snapped a CV end of last week however upon removal of the manual locking hubs, i discovered what can only be described as a bloody mess with what appeared to be material from the locking hub scattered around. It appears a washer/bearing or similar in the hub has failed and as a result, led to me very nearly getting stuck a few days ago ๐Ÿ˜‚

Has anyone had this happen before? Presumably it's easier to replace rather than rebuild the locking hub?

Cheersย 

***edit***
Before the question is asked, I thought one had snapped due to a grinding/clunking noise from the n/s/f which was rotational... it's still possibly going to be a CV which took the hub with it. Neither fronts were turning, figured it was the typical cv noise until I pulled it off
