    Hello all-

    Does anyone know the amount of fluids needed for drain and refill of both diffs and the transfer case on my 2014 SR5 Tundra? I've read the posts about what types of fluids ( Toyota for the transfer case and red line for the diffs ) but at $55.00/liter for the transfer, don't want to buy too much. Also, where is a good source for the plug washers? Thanks!

    It's nice to see someone post up something like this after doing some research :)

    The fact that you know the transfer case fluid is 55 a quart means you know how to use the search function!

    I want to say that the transfer case uses like 1.2, 1.5 Maybe. I don't happen to have my owner's manual on me cuz my trucks at Discount Tire right now and I'm walking home.

    Thanks. Guess I need two containers then or two liters as they package it. Also, the redline diff fluids come with the limited slip additive. Is there any harm in putting that in if the LSD rear diff doesn't really require it ?

    Thanks. I read somewhere that the Tundra doesn't have an actual clutch system in the rear diff anyway and uses some kind of electric thing.
