    Hey I had to take off the speedometer to access a bolt on my transfer case, oil of course leaked out. Does anyone know what type of oil and how much should go in there?

    Thanks in advance

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    If it wasn't a ton don't worry, the case only gets filled to the top of the fill hole and anything that high was just hanging on to the input shaft and the case molding up there.

    In case it isn't clear - the speedometer gets its oil from the t-case, it doesn't have its own.
