Do you have a Detroit locker in the rear? Not uncommon for them to do this, especially in low speed tight turns.

Vehicle is a Defender cab chassis 130.
Have done 400,000 +
Came back from Melbourne and went into a supermarket car park.
I drove out turning left onto highway ans suddenly the right rear wheel seemed to lift off the road and I heard a bang/snap like metal breaking.
Thought it could be a blown tyre or shocker problem but there OK.
Drove home OK. Check under vehicle and couldn't find anything. Rang my mechanic who said I may have run over something but I know I didn't. Told to just keep driving.
Is there any way I can check what has happened? I have a feeling something broke.
Is it a case of Diff Windup. (i read about this) and if so what do I do next.

Or has it lunched a side gear??? I remember that scenario when i had my old 302 ZF fairlane and would go through 1 borgwarner open diff a month doing burnouts...😅. I could drive it in a straight line for while after the intial bang... a few more turns and that was curtains .. i remember looking everywhere for a cheap lsd or 9" but after putting (lots) of fuel in it every week and many many 205 r 14 tyres (again lots) there was barely any beer money...😣
The Isuzu 110. Solid and as dependable as a rock, coming soon with auto box😊
The Range Rover L322 4.4.TTDV8 ....probably won't bother with the remap..😈

Yes, well....
Hilux's can still be induced sideways in the wet even when loaded and with decent Michelin tyres....
So I've been told
Especially on Iron Pellets

Subscriberfc holden special, worked 192, triple carbs. Standard delivery from our truck tyre supplier was 2 x 13 inch retreads for me every fortnight. Had to be retreads as I was an apprentice and they even kept me broke. I was lucky, diffs and axle were every where.
