    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    Well so far I found this on line in a near by town so I am considering this for now as it is not synthetic as far as I know, its compatible to yellow metals, green in color and about as low price as I can find @ around $7.45 a qt. I am looking into that Driven oil also, so thanks for that post...

    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    Just saw your post as I finish the reply. I not to sure if the guy was wrong at least altogether. He did say in his relay to the gear oil I was planing on using is you can use it but the pressures of some Hypoid oils in low gear trans gear boxes may be fine as long a the do not reach a higher...

    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    You are correct as I too was looking around on the 4 speed specs for this year trans and Hypoid gear never came up in any of the writings. I did read as you mentioned that the differentials were the areas of main use with some transmissions but far as I can tell not for the Toyota FJ40 4 speed...

    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    Well maybe should just find a cheaper 80/90 gear oil that is compatible to the trans and change it out to see if there is any change in the shifting. Seems as most of the gear oils today are tainted with some kind of additive's. Not sure how much brass is in the trans but as one mentioned it...

    Best Trans 4 speed Gear Oil - FJ45

    Checking around for maybe a better Transmission Gear Oil for my 82 FJ45s 4 speed trans. I have a small amount t of shift notching between gears so I checked all the clutch adjustments/parts and all is fine. I have 90W straight gear oil in the trans now and was wondering if I should use a GL4...
