    Tranny drain plug?

    If so, most can use a 1/2" breaker bar, otherwise a t60 works and is easier to find in stores. Pretty sure Nuke has a t60 laying around.

    These things are impossible to find. IIRC, grimmspeed may sell them, though.

    the auto transmission on the car is a regular bolt/plug...so no worries there.

    The front diff plug/bolt is flat and only way to get it out is a torx.


    stupid autos.....

    I have a T70, come borrow it. I bought it thinking everyone would need it, and nobody has needed it yet.

    We will probably get to MTKA around 5pm. That's the hope at least. PM me a phone number, I gotta run to Lakeville. I'll call you when we are leaving for MTKA (usually takes us about 45 min to get there) and we can meet up.

    No, that's normal for the rear diff. Dave was asking about the tranny drain plug.

    I know I said I HAVE a diff style drain plug for my TRANNY drain plug, just put a 1/2 inch socket head in there and turn, no need for a torx bit

    Wow, how'd you manage a quadruple post? Attempting to break the internet space-time continuum?

    Ah, now I see you were asking about the auto. :)

    Might be better off taking Shibb's torx bit. I'm not going to make it to MTKA today.

    If you have one nearby, CarQuest can get them and they're only about 7 bucks. That's where I got mine. They might have to special order it but it usually only takes a couple days to get it.
