Newly Purchased 2002 issues by jdrmm8400

I recently purchased a 2002 Quad 4x4 with 4.7 and 45000 miles. I have a clunking sound coming from the front when I brake heavy. The dealer has replaced rotors, lines and pads (and DS front axle seal). I don't feel the clunk in the pedal, just in the front end. Also, today it was raining pretty heavy. Decided to try out the 4 hi. It would not disengage out of 4hi until I turned the truck off. BTW - the light did change from 4 hi to 2. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

my 02 dakota locks up the rear brakes every time I touch the pedal. the master cylinder and proportional valve have been replaced and the drums have been adjusted all the way out. has anyone else run into this problem?? what did you do to fix it?

I don't know how to fix but I have similar probem with my ' '01 Dakota. I think there should be a recall as many have problems in braking

I also have an 02 dakota, rear brakes are very touchy and will lock up if braking hard. Used car dealer where I bought vehicle repaled drums, seemed to be ok for a while then started again. maybe something to do with abs system?

well I don't think anyone would think that replacing drums would stop brakes from locking up I would go back to dealer till they get it right I think there is a serious problem in Dodge brakes that they don't want to admit too, similar to the ball joint run around When you get it fixed please post results I think it has to do with proportioning valve as I have changed master cylinder ,didn't help ,and have no leaks

1998 Dakota, 2WD, V6 3.9. Automatic trans.
 
With rear end lifted, engine running in gear rear wheels spin (as they should) but, when I apply the brakes the left rear wheel stops completely while the right rear continues to spin freely.
 
I was wondering, is this a normal function of the RWAL system, or is this a problem?
