rear differential gear oil replace

On a 2011 Ford F250 with AOD transmission electronic limited slip do you need to add a friction modifier when changing the rear differential oil....thanks

You better check whatever brand you buy. Anymore some are only good for "top off" while others contain the friction modifier for a full fill up.
