Genuine Toyota 90341-24014 Front Differential Drain Plug

This went into the front diff in my 1999 4Runner Sport. Perfect fit of course. I had accidentally ordered it for my 1995 pickup's transfer case, for which it is NOT a fit at all. My bad. I later got the 4R and its front diff is where this goes. It is of typical (high) quality, works properly. Remember you need a huge 10mm hex socket to remove and install. I used a 3/8" drive socket and that was strong enough. If your existing plug hasn't been changed for a while, make sure to douse it with penetrant first, let that soak overnight, and then take care in removing it so you don't strip out the socket. To tighten, make sure to use the correct washer and torque it to only 20 ft-lbs.

Works

Perfect fit for a 1996 V6 Tacoma extended cab.

This is an exact replacement for the front drain plug of the 5th gen 4Runner. Toyota should have used the same bolt head type of drain plug they have on the rear diff and transfer case, but instead used this design. I’ve heard you can buy the Lexus (Toyota) version with the bolt head but I was unable to find the exact one and used this instead. They tend to strip easily, (hence my purchase) so during install I put anti seize on the threads to help prevent that from happening next time.

It was good , I can trully say the plug that keeps oil where the oil is supposed to be on the inside instead of on the ground. It really did it good

Saved my butt when I stripped the original.

Had to replace worked out good for my differential drain plug

I got it just in case I mangled the differential plug taking it off of my 2007 FJ Cruiser. I had seen many videos where the plugs are rounded out and or are hard to get off. Fortunately, I did not need it, but I put it on nevertheless and now I have a spare plug.

It was a perfect fit, just like OEM
