Early Toyota boxes use 70-75 hypoid gear oil. Toyota use faily tight tolerences when building gearboxes. Imagine what is happening between the gears.............when the oil is too thick. Way back when I were a lad, 90 was the only GB oil around. We mixed 1/2 a litre of Dextron ATF with the 90 grade oil. Some guys even used straight ATF. As Norbie said, "some sparkly bits will always be present in your GB oil" A lot of the T50's have been sitting around for years, atmospheric changes will draw mioisture into a GB, that will account for the corrosion. cheers Chuck.
