[QUOTE="cpwolf, post: 429690, member: 19674"] Yes. 1. Make sure you can get the fill plug open (don't want to be stuck without gear oil) 2. Bottom of NSG drain plug (I bought an allen bit, then cut a chunk off the end, and put a ratcheting wrench on it. 3. The exhaust crosses over right under it, major PITA, can't put an allen socket in there, no room. 4. Put foil over the exhaust there, and a pan underneath, drain fluid and let it run down over the foil. 5. Put the drain plug back in and tighten (you have to "feel" to spec, you can get a torque wrench in there without pulling the exhaust, I'm not doing that. 6. Fill with MTL....only until it comes out of the fill hole, do not over fill. Make sure Jeep is on level ground. That's it. [/QUOTE]
