Default Diff fluid w/ LS additive ok?

Will gear oil with limited slip additive damage anything if I don't have an LSD? I just changed my fluids and realized afterwards that I had bought Mobile 1 75w90 LS instead of the plain old 75w90. I'm guessing it won't hurt anything and I just spent more money than I should have, but I wanna be sure.

Thanks.

Go here http://www.mobil.com/USA-English/Lubes/PDS/GLXXENPVLMOMobil1_Synthetic_Gear_Lubricant_LS_75W-90.asp and read up on it. It sounds like you will be OK.

No problem, just a waste of money.
