One the subject of TTR diffs, last night I got the rear unit pulled and opened up. I only ran this truck maybe 5-6 tanks before getting to this task, and all, and I mean ALL of the stock grease was evenly distributed everywhere but on any tooth surface of any gear. It was in the nooks and crannys, on the pins, around the gears....just not on the gears. SO, mechanically inclined minds would presume that the minute amount of lube left on the surfaces of the gears is doing little to tune the diff action or protect the gears from wear.
My analysis, stock grease sucks, silicone oil rules.....PM your diffs sooner than later.
