UK delivery — parts we hold in stock
Ordered before 2pm on a working day, these are dispatched the same day by express courier and normally arrive within 1–2 working days.
Parts supplied from our European supplier
A large part of our range is held by our supplier in Germany rather than on our own shelves. We order these in for you as soon as you place the order. They normally dispatch within 7–10 working days, and are then sent on by express courier like anything else. Nothing ships to you direct from Germany — it comes to our Arlesey workshop first, so you deal only with us for returns and warranty.
Collection from Arlesey
Click and collect is available on parts we physically hold. If an item has to come in from our supplier it cannot be collected, and checkout will tell you so before you pay.
International
3–5 working days once dispatched. Any customs charges or excise duties are the responsibility of the buyer.

Is this a genuine OEM gasket?
Yes. Part number 42181-60120 is the Toyota OEM differential gasket, manufactured to factory specification for the listed models.
Why does my differential gasket need replacing?
Over time, heat cycling and compression set cause the gasket to harden or crack, allowing differential oil to seep out. Early replacement prevents oil starvation damage to differential gears and bearings.
Does this gasket need sealant?
On most Toyota applications the factory gasket is used dry or with a thin bead of Toyota FIPG sealant on the housing face — refer to your workshop manual for the torque and sealant specification for your specific model.
Is this the same gasket for both the front and rear differential?
Part 42181-60120 is specific to the rear differential on the listed platforms. Contact us with your VIN to confirm front differential or transfer case gasket requirements.
