I just looked up Synpower synthetic gear lube and the bottle says "limited
slip" on it.  Does this mean that this product isn't as slick as we might
want in the steering box?  Or am I looking at the wrong stuff?

FWIW, I use Synpower GL5 in both steering box and differential. My reasoning
is that the MT90 is specifically designed to give more friction (for
improved synchronizer operation); but I want the slickest stuff possible in
the steering and diff. 
Synchronizers need friction to work; but friction is not your friend in the
steering box. Or diff.
