2004 Expedition auto locking hubs?

Gentlemen,
Purchased a 2004 Expedition yesterday with 52000 original miles. When I turn the wheels and accelerate I get a vibration if I accelerate to hard. I've heard about the auto locking hubs going bad so can someone share what they've done?

Does the 2004 have a Traction-Lok rear diff? If it does, may be the clutches need the additive?

That was my thought as well since it happens only when turning.

Great thought guys and I'll look into it. I'm taking it in today to have the tires balanced and rotated and alignment. Also replacing the back glass so the defroster will work. This truck was only driven 2000 miles in the last 2 years.
