Auto with the new pulse brake warning system and some other gadgets.

 

A D8! Or 988A loader.

 

Yeah I have no need for a $40k+ vehicle.

 

can someone help me out?? 2014 Tacoma sr5 no locks 30K coming up and want to change diff oil and tcase, so I am gonna do both front and rear plus t case but im trying to find oil for it as in what oil should I use. I was looking at mobil 1

$29 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)

75w-90 ls but is that for only LSD trucks?? also contacted ECGS they told me to use non synth 85w-140 for front and rear and ask dealer about tcase. so can anyone help and let me know which oil to buy and what is recommended?? thanks

 

In the back of your owners manual is the recommended oils, amounts, ect. Section 6 i think it is? Its the specs sections. Unless you are running non-OEM parts that is.


Front and Rear diffs are 75W-85 GL-5. Transfer case is

$29 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)

75W-90 GL-4 or GL-5. Just buy 75W-90 GL-5 for all and youll be fine.

 

thanks for that info so I was looking at

$29 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)

75w-90 but mobil1 has 75w-90LS and dalvek which one??

 

LS has stuff for the limited slip diff which i dont think you want.

 

This is what I use.

thanks all I appreciate it

 

Same mentally I've recently adopted. I doubt I will ever buy a new car again let alone anything in that price range.

 

If I remember right mobile 1 only has the LS stuff now and it was just a marketing thing since the regular could be used in a lsd anyways.

 

so u can use the mobil1 75w90 LS for sr5???

 

Is there something g special with a sr5?

 

no clue it doesnt have lsd but since mobile 1 75w90 bottle has LS written on it I wanted to make sure

 

I'd use it

 

Looking to add a Leer canopy. Any suggestions on who to go with seattle-ish north?

 

But there is something about being the first to fart in it, or drop a booger on the floor. That has to count for something, right?

 

Just go on a test drive and do all that, then don’t come back?
What I do anyways.
Oh wait, I bought 2 new cars last year.
Never mind.

FYI tip ive found...skip those stupid, cheap pumps. If you have the 1 quart bottles you can just squeeze them into the rear diff and t-case. For the front just go to lowes/home depot/ace and get ~~4-6 feet of 3/8" poly tubing and a funnel that will fit on it. Put tubing in front diff fill port, run tubing either up by the engine or if you got longer length to by the tire, insert funnel into tubing, and then just pour into funnel.

Found that to be way easier than pumping
