Gear oil for differential

[876 Cruisers]

Hey all,

I've been doing some research on gear oils

I know the oil for the landcruisers are usually 75w90. But I'm having trouble finding a cheap oil for 75w90.

I'm using sae 90 gear oil in my other cruisers but I'm not sure If thats any good as I've already gone through 2 diffs on my fzj70.

A place I called has 80w90 but I'm not sure if that can be used instead. I live in Jamaica and here the average day is like 30°C

Any thoughts or ideas of what I can run?

Thanks
Dan

80-90w is fine for a 80 and what I run😉

That what I like to hear. Have access to 80w90 by the 5 gallon pales at a decent cost

Thanks

Planning to do both Front + Rear soon Walmart has it and add an additive Diff fluid while at it ...

Why use and additive diff fluid? Did you add a LSD?

I didn't. But Toyota did. Lol

Most useless lsd ever too.
