Evo 9 Front diff pooched?

So I have been having these weird sounds coming from my car. As I come to a slow stop there is a groaning clunk from the front right and you can feel it through the floor. Thought it was brakes but it happens before the car comes to a complete stop. It also seemed to make the sound on a left turn at times.

Today I decided to do a small 180 turn under power and the car pushes hard and heads for the nears concrete object.

Would I be correct in saying the front diff is screwed?

Also is it open or LSD and what fluid does it take?

06 MR

Thanks

Its your LSD its shot. Just to make sure, do a circle at under 5mph. If it sounds and feels like your cars binding up thats the problum.
