If you're using 4WD with enough traction to make your tires/wheels skip, while turning...something is going to break.

Use 2WD until you can go any more, then use 4WD to get you to where you can use 2WD again.

If you're just cycling it as part of some kind of maintenance, do so, but don't do it with the wheels turned - go in a straight line for no more than a few hundred yards at most. The main issue is that it'll build up tension until something pops.
