sosi, have you got the front hubs unlocked ? if you have the front hubs locked you may be experiencing "wind up". Dont; drive around in 4wd on the streets.
apart from that go through TZARs check list. You could have some seized brake cylinders.

If it is a very early 1 litre you can't unlock the hubs. Also has drum brakes on the front and has 4 wheel cylinders at $40 each. Throw the whole lot away and get nt parts and slide them in. Bigger cv's disc brakes locking hubs for less than you can get the front brakes done.
