I tested brakes on dirt drive and all brakes are grabing on hard brake.

Well, maybe your locker is stuck engaged? That would for sure cause it to feel like it is binding up while turning sharp on high traction surfaces. Here is how you can check it:
With truck in neutral and 4HI, jack up the back end so both wheels are off the ground. Try spinning one wheel. The other wheel should turn the opposite direction. If the opposite wheel turns the same direction as the one you are spinning by hand, then your locker is engaged.
On an open differential if both wheels are in the air and you turn one, the other one will turn the opposite way. If the differential is locked, then they will both turn the same direction.
Our differentials are just a normal open diff in 4HI and 4HI Lock. The E-Locker should only engage in 4LO Lock, but it could be possible for something to be wrong and keeping it engaged when it should not be.
