Default rearend problems

Hey guys I just got my transmission put in today and I drove it for the first time in a while and when i turn all the way to lock either way the truck feels like its binding up. I have a feeling its the limited slip not working right. I have the hubs unlocked and nothing is turning on the front but of course it wont do it when I have someone drive it so I can watch. Just looking for some opinions on what it could be.

When mine did that, I ended up rebuilding it bc the spyder gears went to see Jesus.

Did you include the Limited-Slip Additive with the new fluid?
