Default sportsman 500 4x4 issue

Hi guys I have a 05 500ho that feels as the brakes are on but only in 2wd .When let off throtle front wheels lock and hard to get moving again .But put it in 4wd all is fine. Any thoughts. This unit does not have adc.And yes I ride it hard but keep up maintenance and fluid changes.

do you know for sure both front whhels ar locking into awd? did you jack it up and try to move tires to see if the brakes or whhel bearing are the issue? the other bad thing is sometimes the roller cage goes in the front end and causes funny things to happen there.
