nice one olmate that helped me heaps your a champion,cant wait for transfer case vid. I had troubles with water in transfer case,so i thought better check diffs. CHEERS AGAIN FILBZ ...CHOP UP..😁😀🚙
No problem mate 🤙🏽🍻
Really liked that last bit of the video. Cheers 🍺
Thanks! 🍻
Hey mate great vid, finding these service vids for the 90 really helpful, did my first oil and filter change off your other vid. Just wondering if you used the same oil for both front and rear diffs, and how to know which oil to use, would supercheap be able to help me with that?
Another question regarding a service for the old girl, what else would you do other than diff oil, gear box and transfer, and engine oil? filters ect?
Cheers mate loving the videos
Thanks Xavier! Any of the auto stores will be able to help you with oil types and quantities mate. Other bit of maintenance I’d recommend is greasing up your tailshaft’s every 10000kms or so. Just be very careful not to put much grease into the 2 slip joints. If you do it can cause issues with seals on the shafts (and the crush washer in the diff) as it pushes on them as the grease expands the joint. I’ll make a video on tailshaft maintenance one day once I get a chance….
@@bushandbeachaustralia cheers for the reply mate appreciate it
Legend nice 1 mate 👍
thanks mate that was good,I'm guna to my own maintanance too.
Good stuff mate, take your time. At least you know it will be done properly if you do it yourself! No one cares about your car like you do 👌🏽🍻
Hey, I just moved to Melbourne and brought a really good condition stock 90 series. With 250km on the clock. I have had two previously in South Africa and done lots of touring in them in africa. Ill slowly build up the current car for touring. Question: are you running diff breather? i haven't seen them in any of your videos, if so easy to do on a 90 series? thank you
Hi Martin I don’t have any at the moment. There are kits available for them though.
Welcome back to the 90 Family 👌🏽🍻
Good vids. My problem is that the drain plug on the rear diff is mush. I mean like it's made from blu tak - I think the only way to get it off will be to weld whole new nut on the top
Bugger! You can sometimes get them off using a chisel and a hammer and belt the crap out of it on one edge
Having the same issue now
Tried the hammer and chisel thing. Nut is mush. Had to weld a new nut on the top.
I really think that when they made the nut Toyota just looked for any metal lying around on the floor and used it. Old tin cans probably. Why on earth would you make a nut like this out of soft metal ?????
Yeh I’m hearing you bud! I stripped one years ago on a hilux and I remember Toyota selling me a hardened/upgraded one to put in.
There are 2 other nightmare issues with the 90 that I know of:
1) Try changing the rear shocks - the top nut has been 'hidden' up underneath the boor floor. A day in hell is the day you have to take those rusty bolts off. By the way on the 120 they have provided two little removable hatches in the boot floor to access them
2) The rear light cluster in the bumper. They catch all the road muck and rusting solid is not even a good enough description of it. Try getting any tools into the curved section of the bumper to get them off... and try doing anything from the outside without damaging the bumper. In the end I spent about 3 hours carefully with a dremmel getting the bolt heads off from the outside (they are also encased in plastic). This really should have been specified as a stainless steel bolt it would have cost them $0.01 extra. Now mine are changed I have covered them in grease which I top up every 6 months so I don't have to go through that misery again.
Hi mate, quick question. I have the petrol version of this. Do u have diff lock front or rear. Also if so what brand and would air locker or e locker be better. 🍻
I went with a Detroit auto rear locker. The locker itself has been fine but the shop I paid to fit it didn’t set it up correctly. I’ve had to rebuild it and replace the crown wheel and pinion and all bearings. Unless you really need it or take the time to do it yourself and set it up correctly I wouldn’t bother. It’s hard to find someone that takes pride in their work anymore.
Personally I don’t like the idea of running airlines or electrical to a locker. If you wanted to run a front locker you would have to though.
@@bushandbeachaustralia Thanks heaps mate, i appreciate the info. I know a good 4×4 mechanic that does the job right.
@@bushandbeachaustralia Any chamce u could send me a link for where to purchase Detroit Locker

Try this link mate
Hey mate I’m pretty sure I’ve managed to get water in my diffs so I want to attempt to change my diff oil but I’m just unsure as to whether the drain / fill bolts have crush washers and whether or not they need replacing cheers.
You’ll get away without replacing them mate just get that water out ASAP!
Yes they do have one.
But as a general rule they should be replaced
Keep up the videos man 👍
Thanks Luke 🍻
Hey buddy, I love these vids, gonna help me heaps! The pump that you use to fill the diffs, does that come with the oil or is it a seperate purchase, if so can you get them at supercheap etc. I'm hanging to get started on my 90 when I get back. Oh yeah, dont wanna build me one of those rear bars you have made do ya 😋
Thanks Dan stoked they are going to help you! The pump is a separate purchase. Any half decent auto shop should have one. As for the rear bar I made that when I worked up north in a fabricating shop/steel yard. Unfortunately I don’t have access to any of the gear anymore. Thanks for watching mate 🍻
@@bushandbeachaustralia sweet as brother. Bar looks awesome, well done.
Thanks mate I might do a little vid on my rear bar if I can find some photos back when I made it. There’s not a whole lot to it
It was my first attempt at welding and has held up to a rear end crash so I’m pretty happy with its strength 🤙🏽
@@bushandbeachaustralia looks awesome man, you should be stoked. Im back in Perth Sept 28th and will be attempting to do my first service on the 90 (my 1st service ever actually) with a mate at his place in Jandakot, if by chance you live down that way let us know. We can meet up and chat shit, would like to check out what you have done with your 90.
Have you done a wheel stud replacement? I've just tried to do a tyre change before heading off and have found that the last place that did my tyres over tightened them and need to replace the back studs and a couple on the front as well. If you have a vid can you upload it. Cheers mate
I haven’t mate. I’d imagine it would be a knock out knock new one in job. Might be pretty seized in but hopefully not...🍻🍻🍻
Hi good job, You forgot to change transfer case it uses 75w90 I used toyota genuine oil, good pump make easier that job.
Juan Ramirez cheers mate here’s a link to my gearbox and transfer case oil change. 👍🏽🍻🙏🏽

Hi mate good videos just let viewers know 90 series rear diff needs limited slip diff oil
Thanks mate I’m sure people can work their own oil out. I didn’t go into it as people can suss out their own preferences for oil. Also it could vary if they have lockers fitted etc and running temps they are likely to encounter. Also most auto shops will recommend oil to suit
It’s a vid on how to change the oil not what oil to use
Not all have limited slip diff
Hi how long do you need to change all this oil?
You should be able to get it changed in a couple of hours mate
@@bushandbeachaustralia sorry my bad, for my bad English, how long is the service interval for the oil change...
40000km service intervals. If you use your vehicle for hard off road use you could shorten the interval. Cheers 🍻
@@bushandbeachaustralia Thank you so much for the info mate, will change mine asap.
No problem mate 🍻🍻🍻
Hi bro, how much oil?
Hi Victor rear is 2.8litres and front is 1.2litres I believe. Just double check with the place when you buy your oil. Cheers mate
@@bushandbeachaustralia thanks bro
No probs
Man, the music is so pumped!!! Can't wait to get into some GNARLY oil changes...
Only joking, crap music and too loud. Give it up..... The music.
Good vid. Quite helpful. Background music horrible.
Glad it was useful but annoying at the same time
That’s definitely a skill I’ve developed over the years
