I want to check the fluid level in the rear axle housing on my 63 valiant. What tool do I need to get the plug out?? The plug is splined. Also what is the reccomended oil for this application? This is an all stock 63 Valiant. Thanks for the help.....G. |

It should be an 8-point spline in which case a 1/2" ratchet will work just fine. |

The fill plug on the cover of a 7 1/4 accepts a 1/2 square, like a 1/2 inch drive breaker bar or rachet wrench. Top the unit off with 90 wt. gear lube, use the limited slip oil if the unit has a sure grip (posi ) unit. DD |
