    Hi all,

    So I've got a 1997 2.4L taco with about 160k on it, and I have no idea what maintenance the previous owner has done, if any. I'm planning on doing a fluids change today, and was wondering if there's anything I'm overlooking or don't need to change. Also, the type of oil/fluid would be helpful too as I don't have an owners manual. Right now I'm planning on changing the:
    Coolant/radiator flush with generic 50/50
    Engine oil 5w-30 full syn and filter
    Transmission fluid (2-3 quarts?) (75w-90? Not sure if that's right)
    Rear diff fluid (same as transmission fluid?)

    Again, just wondering if I should change some other fluids as well, and if I'm using the correct type

    Thank you!
