4 wheel clunk

I have a 79 F-150 4x4 (C-6,NP 205, Dana 44 front, 9 in. out back). My question is when I lock the hubs in and go to turn the wheel sharp it makes a clunking noise. The truck sat for about 2 years before I got it a year ago. And my dad who was the orignal owner said it never made that noise before. I was wondering if maybe some one had an idea of what it is. Thanks for any help.

Could have a frozen or stuck U-joint in the front. Check those out and also, in 4x4 mode, it's not sopose to turn as far as in 2wd mode but you probably know that.


Primary rig is:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Sunroof, and some 32" BFG Muds .

Pictures are in!!


Then theres:
99' Mustang GT 4.6L
88' F-250 Superduty 4x4 351/c6
95' Mercury Cougar 4.6L V-8
80' E-350 300/6 with a
3 spd column shifter. Top speed is 65mph, Go Baby Go!
