Question Is something wrong w/ my rear

After I did my header install I did a good burnout just to hear the exhaust. Now everytime I take off with the steering wheel turned I get what feels like wheel hop. I'm considering some new rear shocks and lca's. I'm just wondering if when I did the burnout if it was possible that I melted the clutches in the rear end and there fused together. Does the stock rear have clutches. Is there anywhere else to look in the rear or should I look somewhere else. All the bushings in the rear feel tight but I haven't pulled them down to look at them. I guess the best way to descibe the sound is like somethings knocking on the floor in the rear of the car. Thanks for any light you can shed on this issue for me.
BTW i still have the stock 3:23 gear in and I am about to put the 3:73 in so I'd like to fix anything that might be wrong with it while I'm in there.
