    I don’t know if they changed the transfer case in 2014 or 15, previously you could use the same oil as the differentials in the transfer case. Now they require 75W in the transfer case. Refer to the manual for specs.

    Been running the German 75 for a few months now in my 14 Transfer and the transfer case shifts in an out better.

    Either way, I wouldn't change it. My old transfer case oil was virtually clear. I doubt I'll change the transfer case oil again.

    You can find Redline synthetic gear oil in the right spec...... rather cheaply. 75w-85

    Here you go. Buy online.

    Front differential, rear differential: Red Line 75W85 Gear Oil. They just recently offered this weight that matches Toyota's spec perfectly. They also have a 75W90 (what I'm using) that works fine.

    Transfer case: Ravenol 75W.
