Default Gear oil in differentials and ATF in transfer case

Do I need friction modifier in the diffs? Going to use Amsoil and they say its not needed. Any advice?

No you do not need any Friction Modifier for the Diffs. The MTG oil has everything in the oil for the special gears in the Diffs.
For the transfer case Amsoil has nothing for the 8 speed trans, but if you have the 6 speed trans with a separate Transfer then the ATF Multi fluid is the best to used.
Have a 2010 with MTG in Diffs and ATF in my 6 speed trans.
