I'm going to change the diff fluids and am ordering other stuff for bigger jobs, so I assume I might as well upgrade from the plastic drain plugs to brass...question is, how many do I need? At least 4 i'm sure of and have located, is there more I've overlooked?

Thanks.

Glad I asked. I'm guessing I don't need to replace the fill/check plugs then...

Thanks.

 

The drain plugs are metal 1/2" square female with a magnet on them (1 each for the center, front and rear diffs). The plastic plugs are for the fill holes 1 each for the front and rear diffs. The center diff fill hole has a metal 1/2" square female plug with no magnet.

 

ahh...exactly the info I needed. Thanks again!

 

where are you ordering them Brandon and how much are they? i need to pick up a couple.

 

well I was gonna order them from Atlantic British since I'm getting the entire gasket kit from there...they run 5.95 a piece there. You might be able to get them cheaper somewhere else, but since I was already going to be paying shipping with AB, I stopped looking.

I just got done changing the diff fluids..boy did it need it. I now know why there is a magnet on the drain plugs...my plugs looked like an chia pet from the metal scraps.

 

I am going to be changing out my fluids both diffs and tcase to Royal Purple 75W140 next week

I want to get new drain and fill plugs, and magnets wherever possible... where and what should I buy? How many?
