TRANSFER OIL ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK TRANSFER OIL

   1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface.

   2. 

      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. 

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

      Check 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.

      If the result is not as specified, add transfer oil.

      Oil grade

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

      Viscosity

      SAE 75W-85

      Note:

      • When adding oil, pour it slowly.

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

   4. If the oil level is low, refill oil after checking for oil leaks.

   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).

      Tip:

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