Default Additions to t-lok and gears?

I am going to be buying a t-lok and gears soon, and have a shop install them in my 7.5. Do I need anything else, or is that good?

2 quarts of rear end lube. Any good brand, 75W-90 will do.
With putting in a trac-loc, get 4 oz. of Ford Friction Modifier and put that in, too. You should be able to get this for $5 or so.

If you get royal purple rear gear lube, you wont need the friction modifier, although you might want to use it anyway. The friction modifier will prevent low-speed groaning when turning.

If you have a manual, you're supposed to get a 3.73 right?
