I believe this vehicle is AWD and when you engage the 4WD, it is in fact locking the differentials to be equal for both ftont and rear.

I would suspect the transfer gear needs to be checked, most probably the chain within the transfer is worn..

Transfer gear is the one at rear of transmission where the driveshafts comes out to be connected to front and rear of vehicle.
