I've been having problems with the rear end jumping kinda like the wheels are locked together but just noticing it from turning from a stop

what kind of truck? do you have a limited slip rear end? Did you check or recently change the lube in the rear end?

Are you sure it's the rear-end? Might be the front-end if your hubs are locked (or the needle bearing is dry).

Sounds like the rear is staying locked (what type differential ?)

On some this is normal.

Very noticeable when turning from a stop or slow moving tight turns sounds exactly like it.

Check the diff.
