Re: Diff oil
The Gregory's service manual states to change front & rear diff oils every 40,000 k's or 2 years under normal conditions, or every 20,000k's or 1 year if driving continuously at high speed for more than 2 hours or when towing a trailer.

Re: Diff oil
It should be noted that the fill and drain plugs on both diffs are different (early Prado). The socket types are a bugger to undo. I almost wrecked them getting them off. I have since welded big nuts to the face of each socket so they are all the same now and can be undone with a decent adjustable cresent.Originally posted by LANDBRUISERDave
