The Toyota Tacoma's rear differential can hold 4.2 quarts of oil, and Toyota suggests using 75W90 gear oil for maintenance. Opting for thicker oil offers enhanced protection for the gears, especially given the confined space and high temperatures they can experience. Thinner oil may degrade more quickly, leading to reduced lubrication effectiveness. It's advisable to check the differential fluid every six months to ensure it's at the correct level and clean. The presence of any debris could indicate internal gear issues, prompting the need to drain and inspect the gears if problems are observed.
