Gear oil which includes posi additive
I know that you need to add posi additive to regular gear oil. I picked up some Pennzoil “Gearplus” which states that posi additive is not required or recommended to be added, since the product is already formulated for posi applications.
I’m a little nervous about using it, and would like to hear if anyone has had any issues with “Gearplus” or other pre-mixed gear oil.

I've been using lube with the additive and not adding more for several years, no problems.

If it says it has it you should be fine. I use AMSOIL severe gear oil with an additive and I have no issues even under hard track conditions.

Thanks everyone. I feel better now, at least until I bash my knuckles on the batwing.
