what gear oil for 2012 tacoma

hi I cant find what gear oil is required for the front diff i know its 75-90 i could only find GL 4 today, or should i use a GL 5 is the oil the same for front , rear, and transfer case. thanks

 

I use Mobil 1 75/90 synthetic

 

I believe that it calls for GL4, check your manual to be sure. I think the only thing that requires GL5 is the manual transmission if you have one.

 

I finally found it manual calls for LT 75-85 GL5 for differentials and 75-90 GL4 or GL5 any one know what the LT designation means?

 

It appears that Toyota makes 2 different gear oils in the 75W-85 GL5 flavor.

LT - part number 08885-02506
LX - part number 08885-02606

The LT is for non-LSD - limited slip differential; The LX for LSD differentials

Both are very pricey.

I queued up with Red Line not long ago. Their version works in either non-LSD/LSD.
