I like the ability to do both - especially if you think there is some possibility of moisture contamination - a very practical option. Those intervals are a little frequent for my tastes, but I don't drive much and am not towing much these days (also do not have the TruTrac, but wish I did).

I didn't even realize how bad the factory limited slip was until I had this TruTrac installed. What a difference.

Yeah... ...some day...

Fyi, there are re-usable gaskets available. I put these on 4.5 years ago and no problems so far.
