It's just like mulletman said. Last year I had the clutch pack replaced because it was too tight and what happens is which ever way you are turning the inside wheel spins faster than the outside wheel just like a posi-traction ahich makes the tires chatter. It feels like a rubbing sound when you turn corners from take-off. It is a warranty item. THE 2005's do the same thing. It's a problem they havn't fixed.

It looks like you will have to get it fixed or it might wear out the tires like mine did. Yesterday i put on the 3rd set of tires. 46,000 miles

I think you can do it at home. Get the kit from a Ford Dealer and look inside to see what is all in there.
Grab some tools and a 12-pack of beer
