Need help diagnosing problem - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a problem with my rear end... Nice intro huh?

Only when I am starting from a stop, with the wheel turned anything but straight, in other words, this only happens when I am pulling onto a road.
Something in the rear is binding or whatever, and it clunks for the first few seconds of the acceleration, but it is pretty hefty because it feels like it is kicking the whole rear of the truck from side to side until it frees up. This doesn't happen if I am starting from a stop and going straight.
It's a 71 K5 CST, no lift, SM465, 350 stock

Any ideas?
