Hi,

I've done some searching in old threads, but haven't found a decesive answer to this:

My 2002 Dmax's window sticker says "Locking Differential - Rear". It also lists G80 in my glove box. From the posts I read it sounds as if i should have a drain plug at the bottom of my rear diff, and a fill plug at the top. I only have one plug, and it is about in the middle. Am I missing something or what? I'm getting ready to change the rear diff fluid out for Amsoil 2000 and am a bit perplexed. Here is a picture of the rear diff:

As always, thanks for the valuable insight!

I think that the drain plug is not visible if you look at it from the back, it is underneath the differential facing the ground and has a square hole in it.

The middle plug is the fill plug. I have been trying to get the factory manuals but Helm has been out of them for a while now
