   1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface.

   2. 

      *1	No. 2 Transfer Case Plug (for filler)
      *2	Transfer Drain Plug

      Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, remove the No. 2 transfer case plug (for filler) and gasket.

   3. Using a 10 mm hexagon socket wrench, remove the transfer drain plug and gasket and drain the transfer oil.

2. ADD TRANSFER OIL

   1. Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, remove the No. 2 transfer case plug (for filler) and gasket.

   2. Add transfer oil.

      Oil grade

      Toyota Genuine Differential gear oil LT API GL-5 or equivalent

      Viscosity

      SAE 75W-85

   3. 

      *a	0 to 5.0 mm (0 to 0.196 in.)

      Pour oil so that the oil level is between 0 to 5.0 mm (0 to 0.196 in.) from the bottom lip of the No. 2 transfer case plug (for filler) hole.

      Note:

      • When adding oil, pour it slowly.

      • Add oil a little at a time, waiting several minutes between each addition of oil.

      • Too much or too little oil will lead to transfer problems.

      Standard Capacity

      0.40 to 0.50 liters (0.43 to 0.52 US qts, 0.36 to 0.44 Imp.qts)

   4. Wait approximately 5 minutes and check that the oil level has not changed.

   5. 

      *1	10 mm Straight Hexagon Wrench
      *2	12 mm Hexagon Socket Wrench
      *3	10 x 12 mm Long Offset Wrench

      Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench, 12 mm hexagon socket wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, install a new gasket into the No. 2 transfer case plug (for filler) and then install the No. 2 transfer case plug (for filler).

      Note:

      • Use the formula to calculate special torque values for situations where a offset wrench is combined with a torque wrench (Click hereClick hereClick hereClick hereClick here).

      • After adding oil, drive the vehicle and recheck the oil level.

      Tip:

      When tightening, combine the offset wrench with the torque wrench so that they are in a straight line.
