I don't want to steer you wrong. My Chevy van does not have LS so I don't know. Maybe with the synthetic they call for you don't need the limited slip additive. I can remeber some Ford guys saying that they ran Amsoil synthetic rear-end fluid and with it you didn't need LS additive.
I can only say my Ford called for synthetic AND additive. I am sure another Chevy owner will have the answer.
Sorry

Doc, I am not sure what axle you have but I had the GM 14 bolt semi-floater axle on my K2500 Suburban. When I put the Mag-Hytech diff. covers on them, I filled them with Amsoil Series 2000 75W-90. The bottle and the website says that the oil already has a limited slip friction modifier added to it. I just put it in and did not add anything. It worked great but that is no guarantee yours will but after you fill the diff. Drive around in figure 8's to distribute the new oil and work the posi. unit. If you continue to get chattering after a reasonable amount of time, you may have to add some friction modifier. Try adding about 6 to 8 onces at a time. You don't want to over do it.

That's what I thought Chief. i rmembered the AMsoil not needing it.
I love the looks you get at the local supermarket parking lot when you go and do the figure 8's  With these trucks an airport might be better, darn turning radius is HUGE.

Yes indeed! You need a 40 acre field to turn around in. That is one reason I got that 3 pt. trailer hitch reciever fabbed up.

All the Fords I have had indicted adding 4 oz of graphite. I think the Dodge does as well but its so new yet I haven't double checked. No mention of it in my owners manual. If I remember right the LS in the Duramax is actually made from a graphite plate or something different than the historical standard. I have been very happy with the mobil 1 synthetics so I will be useing their gear lube. I did top off with a Valvoline synthetic but I intend to drain that out. I would use Delvac 1 if I could find it at a reasonable price but wally world here finally has the Rotella synthetic at 12.88 a gallon.
