some say yes, some say no.... heat cycling can help though....

jack the car up, chuck the front tires, and let the rear wheels run at 1500 rpm's in 1st gear....2-3 minutes.

shut off, lower jack, let sit for 30-40 mins.


then go out, drive down the road for 10 minutes, accelerating softly, decelerating softly, dont come to sudden, quick stops. be very easy. come back, park it and let sit an hour.

then go out, and make a spirited run, hammer on it hard and quick.... let sit another hour after 5 minutes of brisk runs...

change the rearend fluid, replace with royal purple. and your all broken in.

dont just replace the fluid with royal purple!! some diff vendors say you must use synthetic or non-synthetic and may or may not use an additive. if u cant find info on the instructions or warranty call the vendor
