So I did my tranny oil today which was super easy but couldn't do the transfer oil because I didn't have any oil so still waiting on my Diaqueen to come. I'm looking at the transfer case fill plug and it looks like the downpipe is in the way. How the heck do you get to that bolt with the pipe in the way?

 

How did you get the drain plug off? I couldnt.....

 

the drain plug is easy just use the right socket and a cheater bar worst case it shouldnt b 2 hard the tq specs are really not that high for those..


i have done mine with the DP on and i have the full serive manual and it shows it can b done make sure ur trying to get to the right plug

 

I wrapped the DP witha plastic bag. It will catch the drips. Just remember to remove the bad when yer done or it will catch on fire :P

 

Just use a 24mm socket. I had trouble removing the fill plug. Holy S@#$ it felt like it was welded. Even stripped the bolt a little but managed to get it off after cursing the damn bolt. Now I got the socket stuck on the bolt and just screwed it in with the socket stuck on there. Oh well

 

That sucks but it should come off a little bit easier next time with the socket still in place.

Take care,

the transfer fill plug wasn't bad. i used a 1/2 inch drive ratchet and it fit so a 3/8 ratchet should be as e-z as a black girl at an R.Kelly concert.
