F150 4x4 front differential problems

2002 F150 when I put it in 4x4 hi the front tires squeel like crazy when I turn a corner. It is like they are locked up or somehow out of sync with the rear. I am wondering about speed sensor. My abs light is on also. In 2wd the front seem to be OK, but I think they are still making noise. Almost impossible to drive in 4wd. Help!

If your on dry pavement then putting the truck in 4x4 and driving it is a no no unless you have a full time case but from the sound of it you don't have a full time case. 4x4 is only to be used in slippery conditions.
