I have a 1992 toyota sr5 pick-up with the extended cab. I had to replace the rrear differential gasket and now i need to refill the differential with oil the problem is I can't get my fill plug out because it is to tight and won't budge. I was wondering if any one knew the amount of oil the rear differential takes so i can fill it from the vent plug without being able to check the oil level?

Get a tool that fits tightly on the plug and tap it with a hammer, that's tap not hit, about as hard as you can hit your hand.

Most differentials on cars take about 3.5 pintts of 90 weight oil.
