14 Bolt rear end fluid???

Hey guys, want to change the Lub in my 14 bolt 4:10 rear but not sure if I need the limited slip additive? It's a 68 gmc short with mid 70's running gear. What do ya think?

No, AFAIK there is no such thing as a posi for the 14 bolt. You never use limited slip additive in that axle. You do not use the additive with an Eaton Automatic Locker (gov-lock).
