Rear Axle Grind

98 Expy 5.4 is having axle issues. It grinds or rubs when turning. If you have the windows done you can hear it rub, rub, rub. It feels like there is sand in it or something. The truck has 134,000 miles on it and I changed the fluid and added the additive less then 3,000 miles ago. Is the limited slip going out? Or do I need a total rebuild/change out with a junk yard axle? It only does it when turning, going straight no noise at all.
