Sly_Jeeper Posted April 9, 2019 Author Share Posted April 9, 2019 If I remember right I just put a 3/8 extension in mine to drain I tried the 3/8 but its a little too big n 1/4 is too small. What i had read was that it could work if you grind a 3/8 extension down but i’d rather have the right toolSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SVPete Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I made mine with a bolt and a file in about 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a little smaller so they can wobble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75sv1 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 There is the drain plug in the 4.0L block. I think 8mm square. Really tough to get out. Some are afraid to remove them as the block may crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crash Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I just used a spare chinexican 3/8" extension, and used a grinding wheel to re ove enough material from 2 sides of the extension to fit. Hopefully I will have my 4 wd swap done soon and no more french pos trans. Although, I can't complain too much considering it has outlasted the Turdy5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
