Gowing down the road fine then it pulls hard realy quick out of know where to the right. I can pull over and put it into reverse and go back like when you diengage the 4 wheel then its fine for a little while. Don't know if 4 wheel is screwed up or a brake hanging (this would be odd)

if it happens when you apply brakes then it probably is only teh right one is working and left caliper is frozen. Otherwise have apro check your front end out you may have a bad ball joint or idler arm problem.

If it happens with out braking it sounds like a front end part is shifting . Control arm , bushings ....
