Dont waste your money on the friction modifier additive. It doesnt do anything with the locker unit. It only works with limited slip type clutched units. 80/90 or heavier grade or synthetic will work. Synthetic tends to find any opportunity to leak though so its your choice..

I just reread your post.

"as stated on the cover tag ?"

Are you sure you have a detroit locker and not a clutched limited slip? Lockers are a different beast you know.
