Ford differential lube?

The Fords, at least back around the same time as my '02 Dodge was built, used the same Dana differentials as my truck does - and since there is a local Ford dealer and no dodge dealer for 70 miles, might use the differential lube Ford sell for their trucks.

Anyone have any reason to offer as to why I shouldn't do that? I've been using straight Valvoline semi-synthetic with decent results, but suspect the stock lube is slightly more aggressive as to limited slip operation. And since we're in snow country now, and will be RVing in more remote and unimproved areas, want as positive a LS function as possible with my rearend.
