Need more info... try and be more explicid, could be a few other things, i.e. Power Booster could be faulty. Could also be a sensor problem. When do they lock up and under what conditions? What does the pedal feel like when Lock Up happens? Any shaking?

I've seen cheap POS Tires cause the front wheels to lock-up
Look for dry-rot or an uneven tread wear pattern

I'll bet you have an RWAL system, Rear wheel anti-lock ONLY!!!
so it will be normal for the front wheels to lock-up with limited traction.
