Hi guys and gals,
Despite soaking the diff’s filler plug in oil for some time before attempting removal the top has sheared off cleanly (still sealing the diff - felt like it was undoing nicely - doh). Ordinarily I’d drill out etc but with the restricted access can’t get in there. I haven’t dropped the diff oil yet (luckily) but still need to change it. Any ideas other than dropping the diff? I’d try filling through the drain hole but am concerned about over pressurising the diff seals.
Glad of any ideas/comments/laughs etc!
Thanks
