2020 ram hohd 3500 drw 6.7, 4x4. I'm getting ready to do my differential oil changes and it appears the 12" rear axle is anti slip but I can't find out anything definitive on if the front axle is anti slip so i know weather to add any anti slip additive to my mopar gl5 oil or not.
Rear axle: is this anti slip?
Front axle: is this anti slip?

If in doubt add it. Won't hurt anything if it's an open diff.

This was a perfect suggestion, I had forgotten all about our original build sheet. It shows
anti spin differential rear axle
conventional differential front axle
So is it safe then to assume that i only need to add the antislip additive to the rear gl5 and not the front gl5?

I would double check to see of your diff needs any additive. There are a few in the HD lineup that do not use it.

That's the reason I needed to know if the front axle is a anti spin or not because my book shows it's required on anti spin axles.

Add it to be safe, I don't recall or see an option for a DRW front anti spin axle in parts/service.

Its probably not a big deal if i do or don't add additive to the front but I'm going to stick with the book and just add it to the limited slip axles.
