Default 03 2500 2x4 rear end slides out from behind

On dry pavement my rear end has been sliding out from behind me like its fish tailing. Is my diff bad?

Default Diff fluid

I think my spider gear was locking up. I replaced the diff fluid and it was not as dark as molasses but it was getting there. Changed it out and everything is fine now. I did check my tires and they are getting worn but still have a good amount of tread on them.
