That's actually quite normal for a standard differential. The wheels only
go in the same direction for certain types of "limited slip" differentials.

Might possibly be a brake shoe hanging up somehow, but my guess would be
it's a transmission problem. Are you certain the shift interlock (pin and
two balls in the shift cover) was assembled properly?
