See my last post.

I needed the long one to break the bolt. You can use whatever you want after that to unscrew it.

@Sasnuke the manual says SAE90 for > 0 degrees F. I would say that in the southern midwest area, it doesn't get below 0 for more than a few days of the year. Last time around, I went with 80W90, to account for those few subzero days. I'm thinking maybe I should go with 90W this time around?

Depending on who you ask, some sites say 90W isn't recommended for even some temps slightly above 0. So, thinking my original choice was the correct one.

Instructions are a little confusing because it doesn't stipulate if above or below 0 is binary, or if it's based on the percent of time you are in that range. It could be interpreted as using the 80w90 if you live in the Arctic, only.

Thoughts?

P.S. - Does anyone have the actual part number for the "Toyota Genuine Diff. Gear Oil"? Not to be confused with the rear diff version that comes in the can. I can hardly even find a Google image of the stuff.

I found two potential part numbers. Here and here are the respective google searches.
