How do I drain the rear diff oil?
I can't seem to find the drain plug anywhere. I did find what it appears to be a fill plug on the right/front side of the rear diff case. Both the center transfer case (since AWD) and the front diff case do have TWO plugs, drain & fill. But not the rear diff? I think this is my first car/truck with no drain plug on the rear axle diff (been driving since 1976...).
If I have to remove the rear diff cover to drain the old oil (has 75K miles), do I need to install a new gasket?
