Neh, the hard part is getting the snout of the gear oil thing into the hole... i use a long tube instead (about 5 ft) .. one end of the tube goes into the diff, and the other into the gear oil container

Ur right it's not required. Here's what the Mobil1 website says:
"Mobil 1 Synthetic Gear Lube LS 75W-90 contains special friction modifiers designed for limited slip-type differentials. In most applications, the addition of special LS (limited slip) additives is not required. For axles requiring the highest level of limited-slip performance, OEM specific LS additives can be added to this fluid. "
