That doesn't really make sense. If the drag link to the arm were not adjusted correctly after the lift was installed then this problem would exist in both 2 and 4 wheel drive.
I would get the front end off the ground and get a friend to turn the steering wheel while looking to see whats going on down there.

It is typical to have issues turning in 4wd on high traction surfaces, but it does not make sense that it only has issues when turning in one particular direction...

BTW, please do not post the same question in multiple forums. If you think you may have posted a thread in the wrong section, a member of the staff will move it for you when they get a chance.
