    I am about to do my front & rear differential and transfer case fluids. 2019 TRD OR 4X4 LB. Toyota calls for 75W85 in the diffs and 75W in the TC. It seems the Redline (75w85) and Amsoil (75w90) offerings are popular on this forum. Mobil 1 also has a 75w90 oil.

    So for all the folks who have really thought this through - what is the best one for the differentials?

    Any GL-5 rated 75-90 in front and back. Transfer case is more specific. OEM or ravenol from what I’ve heard. There are literally thousands of posts already on this forum discussing it.

    Blaupart has a package for your Taco. Put year and model blah blah, and it comes out to $163 free shipping through Amazon pay. So for $200 clams you can bag that and sandwich and some cold Heinies. :anonymous:
