Default Driveline chatter???

I been have chattering problem for a while when I start off from a dead stop. I have read that some aftermarket differential don't recommend using synthetic gear oil. Well, that is all I have been using since I put a new gear set with my stock limited slip. I also have 402/6130 RAM clutch setup, but it has almost 20K on them. Could this be my problem?

GM Manual that comes with your car asks for Synthetic gear oil in stock differential.

If you mean you have clutch chatter then no, the fluid doesn't have anything to do with it. Most aftermarket clutches will chatter. Some more than others and some not at all. A good solution to this is going to a lower gear like a 4:10 or just increase RPMs and slip the clutch a little when taking off.
