This sounds completely normal, the rear end kind of walks. I have no idea
how your suspension is set up, but I'd guess that coils and links would make
this more pronounced than leaf springs. My truck does this every now and
then, seems that after the locker broke in the kicking subsided. it does it
very occasionally now, no biggie - when it gets a little more frequent, I
change gear oil and it goes away.
What a transformation offroad, huh?
