Rear end chatter

My truck has developed a chatter in the rear end but it only does it when turning left. I'm not sure if it just needs some friction modifier or it is something else. The truck has 92,000 miles if that makes a difference.

Hi Jamie!
Have you changed the fluid in the rear diff yet?
Might be time to do it anyway,
Here is an excellent writeup with pics by one of our members.
It's an inexpensive change too!
Welcome to guzzle's Rear Differential Maintenance Web Page

On a side note, go to Guzzle's index for TONS more on maintenance and mods with pics...

I wasn't sure if it was something else only doing it to one side but if it only needs a fluid change i'll get it done. Thank you.
