hole.
3. If the level is low, add sufficient oil of the recommended type to raise it to the
specified level. 4. Check the gasket for damage, and re-
place it if necessary.
5. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
Changing the differential gear oil 1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place an oil pan under the differential gear case to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt, the differential gear oil drain bolt and their
gasket to drain the oil.1. Differential gear oil filler bolt

4. Install the differential gear oil drain boltand its new gasket, and then tighten the
bolt to the specified torque.
5. Refill the differential gear case with the recommended oil.
TIPGL-4 is a quality and additive rating; GL-5
rated hypoid gear oils may also be used.
 If desired, an SAE 80W-90 hypoid gear oil
may be used instead. 6. Check the oil filler bolt gasket for dam-
age, and replace it if necessary.
7. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
8. Check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is found, check for the cause.
