I would check/change your differential fluid. Don't forget the additive.
You also may be in need of new clutch pack for the diff?

I would say your limited slip clutches are shot.

If you try changing the diff fluid first, I would skip the additive since the clutch pack isn't holding now. You can add it later if needed.

no, just no



if the friction modifier isn't in there, it'll kill the clutches if anything is left in there
