With the tow package the recommended oil is 75W-140 anyways, so you should have no worries, even though you don't tow.

So I bought the 75W-140 Royal Purple, and it says it already contains a limited slip additive. Well, my front is not anti slip, is that going to be bad to put in there?

Hey buddy, Superior and David @ northridge both told me to run standard GL5 80-90 weight during break in. Then I can go to synthetic. You probably know that already, but I was not 100% sure myself. I didn't want your gears to bbq!!!
