Welcome to FTE!

No mention of limited slip:

Is this a 2004?

Page 77 shows motor home F53 as "standard", not "Trac Lok".

Even if a Dana S135S did have "Limited Slip", it would not consist of any friction discs that would need any friction modifier.

Instead, the limited slip in a Dana 135 is a Truetrac made of helical gears, which do not require any friction modifier.
