one wheel peel

Hey, my truck (03 6.0 FX4 CC) has 70000 mi. on it. When I bought the truck it had 67,000 mi on it and even then it was hard to get it to lay posi's. I had to back up a few feet to get it to lock in. Now I haven't done many burnouts cause tires are too expensive but when I do its embarrassing to only spin one. But my problem is that now it won't lock up at all not even when I back up first. Help!! is their any reason or is there any quick fixes like a bottle of friction modifier or something??? Thanks in advance

think it would be ok just to give it a shot and put a 4oz bottle of friction modifier in... I figured it would be the clutches in the lim. slip but I just didn't know if u could put the modifier or how much to put.
