Which Redline fluids to use where?
It seems that every store I call has no idea what kind of fluid to use in my tranny/diff/transfer case. The truck is a 2000 4Runner LTD. I was given several choices by both shops I called, and I can't find any relevant info on this site or redline.com. Can someone please help me out and tell me what exactly do I need?

look under 'specifications' in the back of your owner's manual

diff and tranny normally use gear oil, and the tranny uses gear oil or atf depending on auto or stick...
|
From what I have gathered so far, I need Redline ATF for the tranny, and the Redline gear lube 75/90 for the transfer cases and the diffs. Now if I could only figure out the quantities - all the sources I am going to (shops and write ups) are listing different quantities. Help please!

IIRC, my xfer case takes ATF.....
|
it really depends on the truck.... if i had a tcase, it would take gear oil.... my stick tranny is supposed to have gl4 not gl5 gear oil while the rear is supposed to have gl5 gear oil
|
I have a t-case, and unless the last three people I talked to are dead wrong, I need the gear oil.

Did you read up on Bob_98SR5 write up--- the type & quantity of gear lube you require is correct on his charts with the exception of the Auto Tranny which uses ATF 16 qts. if doing a complete flush 2 - 3 qts. if just drain & fill-- they are the same listed on the 2000 4Runner owners manual that I have... the brand (flavor) of lube that you want to use is the only thing you have to consider-- I use AMSOIL... but there are many other good synthetics... :)

So... I'm guessing it's safe to say you didn't learn anything from this thread:
