2016 CTD 2500 REAR DIFFERENTIAL QUESTION

I was looking at the window sticker from my 2016 CTD and I noticed it said I had the optional "Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle". Ratio is 3.42. Does that mean I need to run the friction modifier in this one?

    Good info. Do you know the capacity? I've seen conflicting info online


    I just did a 3500 11.5” rear axle and it took a hair under 4 quarts.

    OK, got it, thanks.
