-- Try the DIY instructions at First DIY Transfer Case Fluid Change (w/ Pics) . The photos are not great but maybe it's a start.

-- Try the auto tranny A540H section of the manual located at Toyota Rav4 1996 Service and Repair Manual + Wiring | Free Download . Also see the attachment. Caution: The 1996-7 Rav4s and 1998-2000 Rav4s have some differences, like cruise control and ignition.
thank u, i just did the trans fluid, transfer case and diff fluid change today using that guide. really appriciate the help. im looking into buying a 99 -2000 rav4 5 speed manual also, great little suv with great space to haul anything. problem is i alread own a 90 corolla gts 5speed and an 06 accord 5speed, wife would give me beef seeing another "junk" i'm quoting her words.
