More friction modifiers = more slip.

There have been many posts in the past about Synthetic lube for the DANA's.
Seems like Royal Purple was favored for not taking out the limited slip. I think the recommedadtion of tring it without modifier is best. I did not need any, get some occasional notice that it is working well. I think 30k with the synthetic is proably OK. You do get some contaimination from the clutch packs. If you need modifier add it 1 oz at a time, or your LS may be useless.
Next go round I will just suck the old lube out, taking off the cover, cleaning, etc. is a major pain.
Last time Royal purple was about $9/ quart(NAPA), but everything has gone up. It is a good thing we do not have inflation(Sure!)
