Thank you all for your information. I don't have a sticker in my glove box so when I take it to my mechanic, we will look for a tag on the diff/axle someplace. But I'll take dirty's suggestion in to just add the friction modifier just to be on the safe side.
If I went with the mobil 1 75w 140, does it include the friction modifier? The reason I ask is because I didn't see it labeled anywhere, however, it does have LS in the top right corner leading me to believe it is for "limited slip".
If I do need extra friction modifiers, how much do I have to put in the diff?
I thought that Mobils labeling was LT not LS??? Eitherway, that stuff has the friction modifier in it.
4oz. is what the LSD calls for.
Dirty, is there a website I can put my VIN number just to see if it has Lim slip diff?
Just back up onto grass or some loose dirt and punch the gas. You'll find out right away.
If you have ice around???, drive one rear tire on the ice and see if the truck moves. Doesn't matter which tire goes on the ice. Open diff will spin. LSD won't.
Just a thought

LOL, I actually thought about doing that but we don't have ice nor do I want to tear up my grass.
just a quick thing.... I had done a "quick tranny flush" at like a victory lane once with my 05.... yeah dont do that the filters moved in my transmission and it wouldnt even go into gear after that... if your going to do the flush a pro shop or do it urself...
