I would start to trouble shoot this by removing the front drive shaft. Then put in 4wheel n see if the problem continues. If it doesn't probably an issue with either front drive shaft or front axel. If problem continues do the opposite. Remove the rear shaft put it in 4 wheel drive n see what happens. If you don't have a SYE put a rubber glove around the rear output shaft to keep the oil from leaking out like crazy while u take it around the block. That's what I would start with to narrow it down.
