Red Line 75W90 GL-5 Gear Oil in transfer case?

I have a 98 tacoma ext cab SR5 v6 5spd 4x4 and was wondering if anyone has used Red Line 75W90 GL-5+ Gear Oil in their transfer case? I know its a hypoid oil but I have a couple quarts laying around and would like to use it if possible. will it cause any problems? If I shouldn't use this what should I use?

I've been using Amsoil 75w-90 in my xfer case for a couple of years now. No problems.
