Transfer Box Maintenance
So this is the information I got from RAVE,
Transfer box
Use Texaco Multi-Gear 75W/90R or oil meeting
specification API GL5
I assume this is the same oil used for the differential. But is there an easy way to replace the oil? Seems like I cant fit any tool behind or underneath to reach and remove the plugs. The filler plug is blocked by a cable or hose and its above the plug. Can that be removed? The drain plug, can that be removed without removing the cross bar right beneath it? Any suggestions to remove those or tools?
Thanks again

I actually went to a hardware store and bought a big diameter short bolt and ground down the threaded part until it was square and fit tight in the fill plug hole. After it was in the bolt head was flush with the back of the transfer case and I just used a 7/8 inch wrench to take the plug out, it eliminated the need for the wobble and the parking brake cable was not a factor then either
