Before I put it on the road I would like to replace the gear oil. I find no plug by which to drain it, and the owners manual in my 2007 truck just says if it leaks, repair it. How can I drain it without removing the cover? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,293 Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum | | Moderator for Tons o' Fun , Co-Moderator Driveline Forum Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 1,293 |

Or, can you suck it out of the filler hole?
