My 02 F150 7700 with the LS 3.73 rear end has done the same thing since day one. Only on very sharp turns from a stop.
The 4.10 LS rear end in my 87 Ranger was really bad. Changing the fluid solved the problem but I had to change twice a year.
Wouldn't trade the LS for anything though. ALMOST don't need the four wheel drive.

My 2000 expy started doing the same thing around 42000 miles. Problem was solved by changing rear end lube and don't forget to add the friction modifier additive. The 75W-140 synthetic oil was hard to find, the local part stores didn't carry it and I had to go to the dealer @ $17.50 a qt.

same problem here
we ended up having to pretty much replace everything in the back axle. all this happened on a 2000 f-150 supercab lariat 4x4. it started at about 21000 miles and it got really bad at about 45000miles. the ford dealership first replaced the rear seal, and lubed the frictioner. worked for two days and the problem came back and we ended up replacing the guts of the rear axle. that took care of the problem so far. hope this helps, see my post under the same catagory named rear axle problem.

I have a 2001 F-150 sc w/ 14,500 miles. This same problem just started on it this week. The dealer said they need to add the friction additive. I still would like to find out exactly what it causing it. I know it's the limited slip but what is it doing? The dealer also said its a common problem on E150 vans. Weird.
