Help! Wheel keeps breaking off!

I may have missed it as I scanned the 7 pages quickly, but have you taken the front drive shaft off and driven it? If it still does it you know it's not the transfer case but in the front axle.
I was also thinking a locking front brake causing the lugging until put in neutral. Do you have 4-wheel ABS? Could be the sensor, or the proportioning valve (aluminum block with lines by the fuse box).

So I've been really running every single vacuum line on the truck and I found something suspicious. The connection to the solenoid right next to the shift linkage on the transmission has about 6 wires coming in and every single wire is completely bare and twisted together. They are nearly welded together. I think this may be the jumping problem. Gonna hit up a junk yard this weekend and get that replaced.

I put some heat shrink over all the bare wire. It stopped the jumping. But it still has absolutely no power. It wouldnt even pull itself up a hill. It's fine in reverse. And it won't shift down from drive when you stop. So I have to gear it down manually. I guess I will get a new solenoid. Will that make it have no power?

Lets back up to your 1st post, you need to pull the front diff cover immediately, what your describing hear is a ring and pinion that's locking up!! leaving only the differential to operate, this would explain why one wheel starts to rotate backwards while driving down the road..
