steering problem

I have a 1978 f-250 4x4. I just replaced the rear end and now when i take a gradual turn to the left at about 40 to 60 mph, the whole truck shakes and kinda power hops. I really need to figure this out before i break something i cant afford
thanks

Moved to proper forum and retitled.

One of the front hubs may be locked or maybe the diff is locked up. Have you checked to see if it does it turning right?
