Subject: Re: DML: Slipping LSD Friction Modifier?
Ok all this talk about friction modifier in an LSD has got me a little
freaked out.About two months ago I changed the oil in my 92 4x4
differentials.I have the stock 8 1/4 3.5 differentials and according to my
FSM, friction modifier is only needed for the sure grip.Am I doing damage?
Do I need to add this to my oil?If so can I get it at my local auto parts or
the dealer?Appeciate the help. Steve
