Ok
Just noticed when turing slowly around tight corners my front brakes seem to come on. Like, when I am going to park in a parking lot. As soon as I straighten out they are fine. Any ideas before I pull the front tires off.

Is your truck lowered to the max or something? Sounds more like your tires are rubbing against something when your wheels are turned at 1st thought.

Max turn. Differental wants to push straight. You are pushing the tires sideways. When you turn, the camber causes the truck to lift up. Front tires aren't parallel (especially obvious on Mercedes).
Heck, it's a miracle it turns at all!

Thus illustrating why we need to include all those pesky details when asking for help.
Of course the question begs; why would 4X4 cause the feeling of brakes being on? I would expect jerking, maybe.
