I would think there would have to be a fill level hole. I mean you don't fill i to the top and call it good.

 

Find remove that plug and fill from there. OR at the very least, leave it open as you fill from where ever is convenient. Once fluid comes from overfill hole, stop its full.

 

Don't mean to over simplify.

I just happen to own a Samurai. The oil fill and check plug on the transmission is about halfway up the side. The capacity is 1.3 L of 75W-90 gear lube. The fill and check plug on the transfer case is also about halfway up the side of the t-case. The capacity is 0.8 L of 75W-90 gear lube.

thanks for the help. when i crawled under and saw a fill and a drain i didnt know what he was talking about when he said u have to take off the shifter boot but turns out the fill plug is stripped and i ended up pulling out the shifters to fill.
