the first number is the viscosity of the oil---- and since you are not worried about 'flow' , it doesn't make a daymn bit of difference !!!!!!
any 75-80/90 will work !!!! (Marlin recommends 80/120 !!!) so what ???? the parts are immersed and won't know the difference !

as in engine oil----- toyota does not recommend Mobil 1-- so you shouldn't use it ??????

in the winter i run 10/40, in the summer i run 20/50--- (i live in the mojave desert and it gets HOT in the summer !

in the tires-- i usually run 28/35 psi in my '93--- in my 85, i run 8 and 5 psi !!! NOT what toyota recommends---- but they don't run 36's and don't know the application in which i use the trucks !!!!

toyota uses 'red' antifreeze--- so you can't use green-yellow-purple ?????
