Is there a locking or limited slip diff available for the front axle?

Personally I wouldn't because our front diffs are not very durable and it would wear out the cv axles as opposed to a solid axle

If they aren't very durable I guess I need a different truck. My frontier was VERY durable:-/

I haven't heard of many issues with the front diffs or cvs

Then you haven't read much on Titan talk.

Our front diffs are plenty durable, just don't abuse it while reversing. I would also suggest not modding it.

in 4wd the front is locked essentially is it not?

No. The front differential is open all the time. Like the rear if you don't have the e-locker engaged.

In other words, you'll only ever get three wheels fully engaged.

but in 4hi when you turn on asphalt it binds bad. unlike the rear

The front CV joints will bind when turning sharply in 4Hi or 4Lo but I get it a lot worse in 4Lo.

I've been in snow deep enough that I was up to the rocker panels. Engaged 4Lo and the e-locker. Only three wheels turned.

I like your "edit" note. haha

 

[LUBECAKES]

A 4x4 will bind while turning because there is nothing in the transfer to compensate for the different driveshaft speeds that you would encounter if it had something in there.
If the T was an awd you would have some type of center diff or clutches to allow full time 4x4 if needed, while having the ability to turn sharp when it's not needed.
That's the best description I can give you at 4am without my coffee.

If you want a more locked performance oute of an open diff you could try heavier diff fluid. It takes some slop out of the diff but makes it a little harder on the driveline. I did this on the front of mine and it fixed tge 3x4 problem.

I would not do any modification that doesn't make it more durable...
