I was just going to post a new thread but instead I shall semi-jack this one. About 3 months ago I changed my diff fluid with Royal P and added 4 oz fric mod. I changed it because I was starting to get that dreaded chatter/ rough takeoff from turn/ reverse issue. It still did it so I added three mor oz of fric mod. I wasnt comfortable adding that as the RP was supposed to have it in it already. Problem was still there.
Before I got my new wheels I noticed a speed wobble and it got worse when I got the bigger tires. Took my truck in for the airbag recall and had my dealership spin the tires to make sure. (they were off some by 5oz) still had the speed wobble but now it would go away. Ruled out drive shaft as I could make it not do it, and figured I was going to have to do the rear end. Just for the fun of it I decided to change the fluid and grabbed some Mobile 1 and more Fric Mod. TAAAADAAAAA no more wobble no more rear end drag. Sorry Royal purple, now I wish you werent in my transmission.

It shouldn't cause a problem - sometimes you even have to add more modifier to stop chatter.
I don't think Amsoil has modifier -

AMSOIL Severe Gear is compatible with most limited-slip differentials. If limited-slip differential chatter occurs, add AMSOIL Slip-Lock™ friction modifier additive.
