Yeah, buy three bottles but you only fill till it starts dripping out of the fill hole.

You're probably gonna need friction modifier from Ford too. Correct me if I'm wrong but the 8.8's in the foxes needed the friction modifier to get the trac locs to function properly,

He's right, unless you have a detroit truetrac or torsen differential / locker, you have to use 4 ounces of the Ford Friction modifier for the rear clutches or you will damage them.
