Thanks for this. I did my fluids several years ago and just did them again today and watched this to be sure I wasn't missing anything. I used the new Valvoline gear oil pouches and it was so easy. Highly recommend those to anyone doing this service. You'll have a little left in the pouch, but you can dump it in to one of your other pouches.
I say this no every video i watch. Because no one even mentions it. The thing is after you change the oil in the rear differential it’s a good idea to check the vent cap on top of the axle housing. Because if it is plugged up with whatever it can cause pressure to build in the housing and cause the axle seals to leak the diff fluid and that could cause your brakes to go bad. Just a thought. They are only a few bucks for piece of mind.

That rear diff oil looked damn good for its age!
I was very surprised lol.
Your a great mechanic, very knowledgeable.....i have a 3rd gen 4runner i want to restore, frame is shot, body is solid
Well done I'll be doing mines soon. I have a 1 gallon Jug it should do the trick!
What valve did you use to open the line to let fluid transfer into the front diff…Thanks
I planned on using redline 75w90, do you think the gallon jug will be enough?
This gear oil is for REAR DIFFERENTIAL also ?
yes.
This 4runner Ben in off-road 🤭🤭🤭 very clean
Not in a VERY long time lol.
Those hex bolts are fine. The only reason people strip them out is if they don't clean them out and the socket isn't seated all thr way.
Great job god bless
I vote powersteering.
(I've never actually flushed a power steering unit, just replaced them for various reasons. i.e., noise)
In my case it did not come out so I welded a nut, after that I just changed the oil and left it like that for the rest of its life there welded
Not saying it's a problem, but that's the thinnest 90W gear oil I've seen.
It's all I've used so I don't have a comparison but its been good for 100k miles and 15 years in this truck. Maybe synthetic flows better?
Nice beard
Not a speck of rust. Must be nice.
First

never ever remove the drain plug before the fill plug. NEVER!!!
