carguy07 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Got the trans and front diff draining. I did not find a washer for the diff plug. Is there supposed to be one there?? I'm refering to draining the ATF from the front diff. If there is supposed to be one I think it will be a flat aluminum one like the pan plug has.

carguy07 Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 Found it in the bottom of the pan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjmc11 Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Carguy, You can always replace that washer with one that is of similiar size / shape. The purpose of that washer is to provide an extra friction point for the plug to secure itself. If you place it in without the washer, and your fluid begins to leak from that point, the plug will eventually work itself loose with the fluid acting as a lubricant. With a washer there it does not allow the fluid to touch the top / head of the plug which ensures a secure friction point connection to the pan.
