Yeah, sounds like either you don't have a limited slip differential in the rear end, or it's not working. First you need to see what you've got. Should be a tag on the rear end, and it will have useful information in this area. Then you'll know whether or not you need to repair an existing limited slip or replace with a new one. One important note: If you replace the rear end, either make certain it is the same gear ratio as the old one, or replace the front differential with the same ratio as the rear. 4X4 with different gear ratios will not last long and will handle very badly for it's short life.
