Do the new trucks (2007 LMM's) require the addition of posi-trak fluid to the rear diff when changing the oil out? I didn't see it mentioned anywhere in the manual, but when I changed mine out it smelled like it had some in it. (That unmistakeable smell)

I just changed the oil out of the rear after 3k miles. Wow... it was very full of metal and the magnetic drain plug was caked with metal particles.

Thanks

No friction modifier additive is required for the Eaton gov-lock unit in your differential - only a GL-5 rated synthetic lube.

Thanks for the help! I used Mobil 1 Synthetic 75-90... On the bottle it says "where API GL-5 is required..."
