Question rear end problem

i have a 93 ford f150 flareside with a 5.0
i have put 4.10 gears in the rear the problem is that when i burnout, only my right rear wheel burns out, not that it matters but it is only 2 wheel drive
that is all i know i dont know why it does this... when i do get a good burn going the left wheel does start to turn regular...at the beginning though there is no turning
thats all i got guys i would appreciate all your info you can give me
thanks

It's an open differential, don't worry, in a while you won't have that problem.

As tex said above... this is normal. If you want to lay out some bucks for a locker ( not a limited slip ) you may get them both to turn. An old trick at the strip was to pull up staight to the line, back up straight about a foot, and then pull up to the line. This usually put a bit more torque to both back wheels. Good luck!
