The front wheels on my B1700 freeze up and won't turn when the temp outside drops. What to look for?

Hello, Seems to be you may be running your front wheel gear boxes dry or water is getting in the box ,check the oil in them and if any of these conditions are there , rebuild them with new bearings and seals ,and maybe jiffey sleeves on seal contack surfaces ,thats what i did with mine and i learned a lessen to look for leakage on the seals and to check the oil level in the boxes every once in a while , hope this helps you , Angelo ....
