Default How much posi lube additive?

I've searched the archives on this because I know I've seen it in other threads, but no luck.

One or two 4oz bottles?

I used one bottle. The GM tech I spoke to didn't recommend using two.

I used 2 bottles. That's what I read here and what my local dealer recommended.

Believe you'll find about half use two 4oz. bottles and the other half use one. I used one myself.

I thought this was another poll... :crazy:

I vote for 2 bottles. That's what Bair's sent to me when they rebuilt my differential, and that's what I used.

Did a fair amount of research myself including this forum and came up with one bottle (4oz.)

Well, the opinions seemed mixed, but since I'd bought two bottles, I had 'em put both in.
