    My 2002 has factory limited slip and the inside tire would still break loose going from a stop to 90° righthand (or left) turn. The addition of the Hellwig 7700 Sway Bar cured that problem and it also enhanced street performance tremendously as far as speed turns and lane changing. In the Top 2 mods done on my truck for sure. Consider it.

    Check the breather on the diff, it's a bit of a known issue for it to be somewhat clogged which could result in excessive pressure buildup, that could be the reason for the leak.
