Question Popping Sound from rear when backing up

I am looking at purchasing a 1999 7.3 diesel F350 Dually with 50,000 miles. It has a popping sound in the rear wheels when backing up and the steering wheel is turned. Is that the rear end? If so, does it need replacing?--

Sounds like the limited slip differential is popping

Add some Friction Modifer to the rearend, I'm guessing rear lube was changed and it didn't have any added to it. My Dodge and a 2001 PSD did the same thing when synthetic was put in them.
