2013 Raptor transfer case fluid change

[JAQ51]

Hello, I have done my diligence on this but looking for some confirmation. My local dealership Tuttle Click Ford said “transfer case fluid” is NO longer available and sold me 3 quarts of mercon LV for a transfer case fluid change this weekend. I this correct? Can I get confirmation friction modifier is NOT to be used in the transfer case? Truck has 25k miles. Thank you in advance.

No limited slip packs in the t-case, so no additive required. Mercon LV is fine.

When all else fails look in the owners manual to see if it agrees with the advice you get on the interweb ( I know it's not a word) if the two don't match, investigate further.

Torsen differentials do not contain clutches, not necessary for the design.

Torsen.com says it is not neccasary to use a friction modifier, but they go on to state: if your OEM says to use it you should. The more friction the faster the Torsen will lock, since the Supplemental calls for it, use it.
