Chevron Gear Lube ???

I,m ready to change my gear lube in the front and rear gear boxes. I wanted to go to a synthetic 75w/90w. In this town there is a Chevron jobber(bulk dealer) so I stopped by to check out gear grease.Chevron has afull synthetic 75w/90w that already has the friction modifier added for limited slip rearends. My question is anybody using this in their limited slip? Will I have to add additional friction modifier to this and how much? Also will it work in thr Dana 60 front box with the frition modifier in it? Rear end is of coarse a Dana 70 LS. I,m trying to save money by buying in bulk and need synthetic. Also I,m tired of going to Cummins - Dodge etc etc when I can get everything I need at Chevron and at quite a savings in bulk and always available.I think I need synthetic grease for the cold here. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks
