I personally feel it will not hurt the Eaton unit in anyway.
I will post if any problems show up from running synthetic. But, per Eatons website
------------What type of lubricant and limited slip additive should I use with my newly purchased Eaton Limited Slip Differential?
Eaton strongly recommends utilizing an API-GL5 approved Mineral-Based 80W-90 Axle Lubricant and one 4-oz bottle of Limited Slip Additive (GM or Ford).------------
Says STRONGLY reccomends, but does not say that you have to. I may shoot them an e-mail to see what they say.

It has been used by someone here in the past and reported on.It will not hurt your unit except may glaze you friction discs so it will chatter even when you go back to non synthetic as Eaton recommends

but dude read your post. all you had to say in the beginning that i was wrong and that you actually have a eaton and this is what you use. no you couldnt do that you had to be a smart ***. i guess thats just how you are. think that you are better than everybody and if somebody makes a mistake you have to be an *** over it. i dont hang out with anybody by the way. now be a mature person and 
I WAS WRONG. big ******* deal.
