    1 friction modifier or 2?

    I'm putting in a new pinion seal and fluid in my rear end. I've heard two bottles of friction modifier works better.
    Anyone have any experience?

      1 7oz tube or 1 4oz concentrate bottle is more than enough if the Traclock clutches arnt already shot. 2 wont make a bit of difference.

      I used 80-90 nonsyn with the 4oz bottle, works great, grabs every time. Does good burnouts

      Use the Amsoil 80-90, already has the modifier in it.

            Thanks, guys. The guy at Ford recommended using two. He said people has much better luck first time around. He may just be blowing smoke.

                That's because a lot of people bitch about chatter on brand new clutches. If you are more concerned with the function of a limited slip than the "characteristic" noises of one - use one bottle. The modifier literally reduces the clutching ability of the diff therefore reducing the noise they make when they slip.

                  Makes sense. I'm using one.
