clutch type posi require posi additive, gm sells the only one i'll use. there is a fill plug, big rubber thing on cover of 9 bolts, 3/8npt plug with 3/8 square female drive on left side forward of axle tube on 10 bolts. fill it till it runs out the fill hole. the bottle has a fill spout, all i use is the bottle. if the rear is empty it'll take 2 or close to 2. i'd buy 3 because you'll have hard time getting all of it in from the bottle.

Right, but you still need one (small) bottle GM posi additive, buy it at any GM dealer, they know what you want.

Yes, put one bottle in first (it's only 4 us. fl.oz.), some guys here put in two bottles, but I'd say start with one (recommended by GM)
The part nr. for the bottle is: 1052358, Goodwrench Limited Slip Differential Lubricant Additive.
The part nr. for the gasket you need is: 12523445.
BTW, you need at least two bottles axle lubricant , you showed above!!
Good Luck!!
