1975 Chevy Chevelle V8 Automatic 60000 miles

The back passenger side tire moved forward on drive when on a jack stands and the back driver side tire did not move. When I put the car on neutral and turned the differential, both back tires moved forward. When I turned one back tire, the other one turned to the opposite direction. I put the jack stands on front to see if the front tires will move and they both moved without any problem.
I am currently out of trouble shouting tips and I am in a desperate need for help. By the way, it's a 1975 Chevy Chevelle V8, 350 engine with an automatic transmission.
The transmission fluid level is normal and the differential fluid level is also normal.

The thing you are talking about your back wheels turn ing one way and te other going the other way is normal. If you wheel moved forward on one side an dnot the other, check your trailing arms that hold the rear end in the car. Look forworn bushings on the right side or broken mounting bolts. It's an easy fix.
