    Rear diff was low. Well just changed my rear diff fluid, and as suspected I was low. About half a quart low, maybe even more. Replaced with redline 75w85 synthetic. I can already feel the truck shifts smoother. I have the off-road so my diff takes 4 qts. Which it took exactly that before fluid started to trickle out. WTF Toyota.
