Mike,
As you found, these questions have been asked before.
I would disconnect the driveshaft if I were towing for more than a few
miles. Some say there is adequate lubrication; some say not. It's four
bolts on the rear flange to undo in order to assure that there can be no
problem with the gearbox and OD.
LMA is my choice. I've used both. Having done so, for my driving I see
no advantage to the silicone. Both work fine, but it is essential that
the system be clean whenever a change of fluid is done.
BTW, LMA is now sold as new formula, higher wet boil temp, synthetic,
about $29 per gallon, DOT3 & DOT4 compatible.
