The Toyota Tundra front differential takes 75W-90 fluid. It is recommended to use synthetic lubricant for the front differential, and Toyota does not recommend replacing the fluid in the front or rear differential at any mileage.

How much fluid does a 2017 Toyota Tundra front differential hold?
High performance replacement equivalent to the original recommended Toyota Tundra front differential gear oil specs and part number 08885-02506. (Capacity 2.0 liters, 2.2 quarts)
What kind of oil does a Toyota differential take?
Case which you can use 75 w 90 you can use 75 w80 85 depends on your temperature. Basically use the same fluid in the front differential rear differential on the transfer.
What kind of differential fluid does a 2017 Toyota Tundra take?
We can speed up the process by opening up the fill plug and allowing air to enter the differential. Please allow at least 10 to 15 minutes of time for all traces of fluid to be thoroughly drained.
How often do you change the front differential fluid on a tundra?
30,000 Miles
Four-wheel drive trucks will have the drive shaft boots inspected, the front differential oil changed, and the transfer case oil changed.
What kind of fluid do I put in my front differential?
Think engine oil but thicker; it’s similar to fluid that’s used to lubricate manual transmission gears. There are two basic types of differential fluid: Mineral oil, which is a natural, crude oil-based fluid. Synthetic differential fluid, which is created with chemicals and can be fine-tuned for optimal performance.
Is transmission fluid the same as front differential fluid?
Differential fluid is also designed to withstand higher temperatures than transmission fluid. This means that it can better protect the gears in your differential from heat damage. Transmission fluid, on the other hand, is designed to withstand lower temperatures than differential fluid.
What differential oil does Toyota Tundra use?
Mobile 1 75w-90 is great for most owners.
Can you use transmission fluid for front differential?
The differential will be damaged if you use ATF fluid. It doesn’t have even close to the lubricating properties you need.
What type of front differential fluid for 2006 Toyota Tundra?
Toyota Tundra Base / Limited / SR5 2006, SAE 75W-90 Full Synthetic API GL-5 Gear Oil by Red Line®. Location: Front. The go-to gear oil for most differentials.
What happens if you use 75w140 instead of 75w90?
No problem at all! I am a mechanical/petroleum engineer and can tell you that you are probably running ~75W-115 because the only difference between 75W-90 and 75W-140 is the amount of viscosity modifiers (polymers that stretch out and make the oil more viscous at high temps).
