If it's spinning much slower than the rear, it could be that it's spinning because of drag and not because it's actually engaged with the front differential. I'd suggest taking the front diff cover off and seeing if there's any visible issues.

The binding you are refering to is the first sign of the VC going out . My 94 was beat to death and worked flawlessly. It was a little strange the first time I wheeled it , you get a spungy feel with the AWD. But it did great.
