is my differential going out?

whenever i make a U turn and apply slight throttle pressure i can feel my back tires kind of....skidding. its not an excessive amount but i just want to know if that is normal on the FD and stock differential.

thanks.

Are you using all-season tires?
Is your tire tread low?

skidding? diffs tend to whine, clunk etc.. like jonski said check the tires, how is the alignment? does it drive ok down a flat road? if so you need to get under there and start looking at the rear suspension. bushings etc
