I just checked my copy of the 2003 factory service manual, and in the chassis maintenance section (page 99-7) it says the following: So even if the manual that came with the vehicle doesn't mention it, the factory service manual does, in fact, call for two different types of grease.

Hey folks! Hope y'all don't mind a few questions from a 4Runner newbie! I tried to search for what I could, but couldn't find any recent opinions. If y'all want to tell me to keep trying to search, I won't be offended. :) I've had an '07 FJ Cruiser 4WD with 6-speed manual and rear e-locker...
