I use LC-20 in my engine oil, but the trans oil (Torco ATF) is just like it came out of the bottle, and the only additive I use in the rear is Torco's GM friction modifier along with their 85w140 racing gear oil.

There is a disturbing test on bobistheoilguy.com concerning the lucas oil/diff additive. It actually looked really bad. I don't run any additives.
