Nice vid ... I'm in the process of doing this on my 2015 4Runner I bought used a couple of weeks ago. Just have to do the front diff now, will tackle it tomorrow night probably. Toyota makes it pretty easy to do all of this maintenance at home, thankful for that. I'll probably drain the ATF from the pan and do brake pads while I'm at it. Might as well make sure everything is good to go!
Great video love the speed and no wasted time! Question: In your description you say, regarding the hand pump, " no you can't reuse one of it had differential oil in it" Is this for the transfer case? I though you personally used the same oil for all 3. Would you clarify that? Maybe you meant transmission fluid in the pump? Thanks
This video really helped me out. Thank you for detailed tips about socket sizes, torque, oils etc. I could not find this info anywhere else until I saw your video. Transfer case plugs on 2006 4Runner appeared to have regular washers that was different from a crush washer on front and rear differential. They appeared to be just a regular washer the way it came from the factory. I scratched my head on it but than decided to just put it back on instead of crush washer. Its worked so far. Any thoughts?
Glad it helped! As far as crush gaskets, I've reused old ones before, if it doesn't leak when you drive it, then it should be good. As long as you tighten it enough, no need to worry. It's more of for peace of mind for most folks.
I apologize, I've been so busy. I can't remember how much I bought exactly, but the factory manual shows each capacity, I just added them up, and got an extra bottle left over.
JDK K I haven’t experienced it yet, but from reading around it’s as simple as an O-ring or gasket if you have the time for the day to tackle it. Not sure also if there’s any difference between a GX and FJ transfer case.
How often do you need to change them. I just purchased a used 08 Gx470 with 150k miles. It has been service by local Lexus dealer its whole life according to the carfax; but carfax shows nothing about all this being done. How do i check if the oil has been replaced. Anyone? Thanks in advance.
If it was serviced directly at any Lexus dealer, go to main Lexus website >> Owners >> Register >> User Avatar *Top Right Beside Search* >> Click *Vehicle* in Drop Down Menu >> Add New Vehicle. After you add your new vehicle with VIN, you'll be able to view all previous service records of vehicle. But to answer your question I believe this is part of either the 80k or 120k mile service.
I heard somewhere being advised to dab on some anti-seize compound on both the fill and drain bolts. Any thoughts to this about not getting in with the lube and messing the gears up?
Not sure about the rust belt areas, but it shouldn't seize due to rust as the plugs are made of aluminum. Never experienced something like that even with my 21y/o SC400 and SC300. It is common that 10mm hex strips though because of bad angle and improper insertion of the socket.
Not an expert by any means but I was thinking maybe there was some kind of unknown (to me) reaction between the metal, lube seepage into the threads, and heat cycling, etc. that would cause the plugs to seize somehow. Thanks for clarifying that.
It is. But like it said in the caption, we used the english counterpart because it actually fit better. Less chances of stripping the plug if it fits better.
Videography was great, but those out of tune, sub tones in the background noise are like fingernails on a chalkboard for anyone with a classical music trained ear.

Best video I've seen so far on changing the fluid on rear/front diff and transfer case. Just did this on my LX470 and this video was a huge help.
Thank you! Appreciate the review!
Thanks! Very, very, very helpful to have access to part numbers! Thank you!
Always remove the fill plugs FIRST before removing the drain plugs. Great video.
I said I'm sorry! Lol
@@OrganizedGarageStatus are the crush gaskets also for GX470's that you listed?
@@jimmydoan007 Those were the ones I used I got from Club Lexus.
@@OrganizedGarageStatus for what car? What car shows in this video?
@@jimmydoan007 It's a GX
Thank you for this rare video !!! More power!

Great vid, you definitely add Amazon affiliate part links.
Do you know the part numbers for the transfer case fill and drain plug?
Well done video, thanks 👍🇺🇸👍
Great video
Do you happen to have the part numbers for the tcase plugs?

Excellent video! Thank you Sir
how much Amsoil gear oil did you buy for all three change. any credit/link to purchase?
I apologize, I've been so busy. I can't remember how much I bought exactly, but the factory manual shows each capacity, I just added them up, and got an extra bottle left over.
Great video! Thank you very much!
Just did this on my 99 land cruiser, I also changed the engine oil.
I have a leak between the actuator motor? and the transfer case. Can this be fixed by replacing the actuator gasket . do you know what is involved?

How many miles to change rear differential. Thanks
I'm not sure about factory recommendation, but every 100k is ideal.
Thanks
You got luckier than me with the drain plug on the front diff. Mine doesn’t want to budge.

Thanks for this comment! Just bought an 04 GX and this helped me get a service history on it. 👍

I do it on my number 25,000 miles you'd be surprised how it looks however I tow trailers
Plugs should be metric
It is. But like it said in the caption, we used the english counterpart because it actually fit better. Less chances of stripping the plug if it fits better.

Sorry, I'm a mechanic, I listen to grunge rock while working on cars.
No need to apologize, it’s your channel.
