                           | (b) Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, remove the transfer filler plug and gasket from the transfer assembly. |  |  
                     
                        
                           | (c) Using a 10 mm hexagon socket wrench, remove the transfer drain plug and gasket from the transfer assembly and drain the transfer oil. |  |  (d) Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, temporarily install the transfer filler plug and gasket to the transfer assembly. HINT: Reuse the old gasket as the transfer filler plug will be removed again. (e) Using a 10 mm hexagon socket wrench, install the transfer drain plug and a new gasket to the transfer assembly. Torque:  39 N·m {398 kgf·cm, 29 ft·lbf} 6. ADD TRANSFER OIL (a) Using a 10 mm straight hexagon wrench and 10 x 12 mm long offset wrench, remove the transfer filler plug and gasket from the transfer assembly. (b) Add transfer oil. Oil Type and Viscosity:  Toyota genuine differential gear oil LT SAE 75W-85 API GL-5 or equivalent Standard Capacity:  0.45 liters (0.47 US qts, 0.39 Imp. qts) NOTICE: Using transfer oil other than the specified oil may cause abnormal noise or vibration, or damage the transfer of the vehicle. 
                     
                        
                           | (c) Pour transfer oil so that the oil level is between 0 to 5 mm (0 to 0.197 in.) from the bottom lip of the transfer filler plug hole. 
                                 NOTICE: 
                                    
When adding transfer oil, pour it slowly.
Add transfer oil a little at a time, waiting several minutes between each addition of transfer oil.
Too much or too little transfer oil will lead to transfer problems.
