Transfer case fluid recommendations?

Thanks foremost for all that helped on the dreaded oil viscosity question. It needs to be said that some on here can be jerks about simple questions. Can we not forget that some people asking questions on here are new to this vehicle and simple awnsers or even check out this old thread, ect, has been covered... Go easy on the newbies...

 

Redline MT-LV 70W/75W and Ravenol MTF-3 75W are 2 of the best substitutes for the way overpriced Toyota stuff.

 

You talk like a California girl; I can't tell if you're asking a question or not.

Now that i got my "jerk" out of the way...

-Toyota 75W transfer gear oil
-Redline MTLV
-Ravenol MTF-3
...are the big 3

 

Just changed both of the Diff's, and the T-case fluid in my 2019 sport, at 37,000 miles. I went with Ravenol 75-85 in the Diff's, and their 75 in the T-case. they make a kit, just for our trucks, now. Ski

Jerk is what I came up with trying to be P.C for the West Coast fools... Wanted to actually say was cocksuckers. Thanks!

 

Part out ?

 

careful . Might get

 

I must admit I shall do a nose dive then....

 

Last summer I used the expensive Toyota fluid. One can is all I needed and I was careful not to spill any. This is about as cheap as I have seen it.

Well done on saying corksuckers without actually calling anyone a corksucker.


The kit above is a wonderful thing

 

I’ve read of plenty of people using the same fluid as they used in the differentials. I don’t think it’s that picky. FWIW, I’ve got some Redline MTL on the shelf I’ll probably use.

 

Amazon

 

lol

 

There's no such thing as a simple question, only simple people who ask questions.

 

I used the Redline in my Transfer case last time I changed all the lubes, about a year ago. I use Amsoil in everything else.

 

I use Amsoil almost exclusively on my vehicles.

 

Me too

 

Ditto on that.

FYI, Ravenol is one of the crappy brand oils out of Europe.

 

I used the Redline MT-LV and have been very happy with it. It runs really smooth and no issues while shifting. Here is my original post on another thread
