    I’ve been trying to figure out what the best transfer case fluid is for my 2004 3.4 automatic Tacoma. Wondering if anyone had any suggestions

    I also use Redline for the transfer case and the front and rear diff in my 2011. I used Redline in my Miata transmission and diff for years when I had it.
