Default differential issue?

During tight cornering at slower speeds (10-15mph), it feels as if both rear wheels are rotating at the same speed. It gives the feeling like the back end is kicking out, one tire is slipping on the ground.. & this is at low speeds like through a parking lot.
Just started yesterday & is very noticeable to me. 133k miles on a '00.
Any ideas?
Very slight oscillation/pulsation under hard accelleration in 3rd/4th gear, but that's been happening for almost 6mo & don't think it's related.
No groans or noises from the diff that I've noticed.

Try the low speed turns out of gear, just costing in the turn. If you hear and feel thumping or poping then, the LSD is your issue.
