I rarely put my JK in 4H (vs 2H), but I just transitioned in anticipation of some weather, and I noticed it is impossible to make smooth tight low-speed turns. Is that a product of the front wheels being engaged an a simple fact of life, or does it sound like something more?

Are you on dry pavement when this is happening? If so your not supposed to do that, only use 4x4 when the roads have snow or offroading in dirt or mud.
