I poked my head under my car as i have to top up the oils in the gearbox and transfer case and i could only see one filler plug at the back of the second transfer case.

Do i just fill them from the back or top up through shifter hole on the front transfer case.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

either/or , they will both fill up as they are connected, i normally fill from the shifter on the 2nd case as my front case is a forward shifter with the stick in the gearbox housing.
Much easier to fill from the shifter than trying to fill little bottles and do a million trips back and forth, that is unless you have a pump then its much the same.

If am going to fill up from scratch through the shifter how much oil should i put in? Toyota transfers.

just keep the filler hole open and when oil comes out of the filler hole thats when to stop.

unless it's 2 seprate cases?
