Dauphin,
What's up? I am wondering if we need to add some friction modifier to our limited-slip rear ends? Sort of like the stuff that you put in a new ford truck!

thanks:D

The slip-limiter on DSMs is a viscous coupling unit rather than some clutch. The VCU is sealed so anything you added to the diff wouldn't reach it.

Save your money for good gear oil.
