Can i Use 75W-90 gear oil instead of 75W-85 for the diffs

FOR A 2022 TACOMA trD OFFROAD

 

yes

 

yes

 

Yep

 

So its ok for 2022 TACOMA trD OFFROAD ? don't want my truck to explode

 

yes

 

Yep. Will be fine. I repeat will be fine.

And just so you know, when you ask a question, the people that answer can read. No reason to ask it twice or to make sure that they understood. We get it.

 

sorry

 

Probably. Ran a 75w140. Putting 85w140 now.

thin is likely mild stock use trading off between protection and fuel economy.
Thicker oil has more drag.

 

Your truck is just as likely to explode with

$26 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)

75W-90 as it is with 75W-85.

 

Funny I just put that in my 2020 SR5 4x4 today. 6 quarts of 75w90 Super-tech synthetic from Wal-mart filled both a little to spare. I know some will say "Oh Lord Wal-Mart oil" but I Figure their motor oil is fine it should be too. Plus it's only $10 and change per quart.

 

I intentionally put 85W-140 in mine because I want it to explode.

 

Hope y'all rerouted the rear diff breather. Clogged breather can cause the diff to explode (at least blow out the seal).

 

Not me. 'Cause I know Wal-Mart is just like Toyota. Neither one makes oil.

 

Should be fine in "your" truck...

 

Not that big a difference. Depends on your latitude realistically but that’s not worth biting your nails over. Send it

 

i guess the next step is to by the gasket /crush washer for the front and back diffs.
anyone know of a good place to start ?

These aren’t race cars. It doesn’t matter the oil brand you use as long as you change it every 15-30k miles depending on use case.

 

Of course but you know how some are about oil brands. Agreed that super tech is just fine and no need for expensive stuff like royal purple or Amsoil.
