    maint manual says replace Transfer case oil (if applicable) and front/rear differential oil.
    I have a automatic trans 4cyl SR5 4X4. Is transfer case referring to a Automatic trans fluid?
    Thanks for any clarification.

    Transfer case is bolted to the back of the transmission, it's what engages/disengages your 4WD. It's a separate fluid from automatic trans fluid.

    This will show you the transfer case
    Look in your manual to see amount needed and what gear oil you should use.
