07 Gear oil?

My friend has an 07 Tundra. The diffs call for 85w90. Toyota sells the oil but for just the oil for both diffs cost ~$300. What are people using in their diffs? I know he can get 75w90 at the parts store. Can he use that? I don't see a problem. Thinner isn't bad but thicker is.

Any GL-5 should be just fine.
