Default Transfercase Filler Plug Removal Tool

I made a Transfercase Filler Plug Removal Tool, so now I don't have to search the garage for just the right combination of adapters to fit in the tight space. I have a few for sale on eBay now. If there is enough interest I will make more.

I have a Tcase filler plug removal tool also:

http://www.harborfreight.com/hand-to...set-67066.html

The shortest one works perfect and as a bonus I get 3 really stout impact swivels. All for $10. Not dissing your tool, its pretty neat. Kudos if you can get $20 for it though.

I have one too, that I've been using the past 9 years.
Fits up right behind the brake drum perfectly.
Pretty much like this, only fine tooth.

Yeah that wobble impact set at Harbor frieght is a deal. In fact all their impact extensions are a deal. I found using that short wobble does work, but you have to keep it seated all the way. The ball bearing wants to work mine out when turning.

Those harbor freight extentions look like they angle more then most other brands.

Here is what you do Willie, take that to a quick lube and talk to the manager and ask him how many LR's he turns away because he cannot get the fill plug out of the t-case.
Then show him on your truck how this thing works and sell the hell out of it.
Most quick lubes do not have 1/2" drive ratchets let alone a extension to get to the plug.
This will work on Defenders, RRC's, DI's, DII's and P-38 Range Rovers.
I do not know about LR3's.
Try a couple of them and refine your selling technique.
Stay away from indie shops as they will have extensions, you want the quick lubes.
Do some research and see what else uses a 1/2" square drive fill plug.
