ya to me that sounds like its broken. Only one way to be sure is to do a burnout. But I wouldnt recomend that as then it could let go all together. then you have no choice but to replace it. I would just start looking into a 12 bolt or 9 inch. Welcome to the club mines on its way out to, and i have no money to fix it.

I could be wrong tho.

You have a Torsen style diff not an Auburn style diff. Therefore your tires will spinn independantly of each other.
While you were doing this i bet your tranny was in nuetral and the driveshaft was spinning. put your tranny in gear (to lock the drive shaft) and spin your tire. The other will spin in the opposite direction at the same speed.

98's had auburn style diffs. So if yours was doing this and it was a 98 then you would be in trouble.
