I have one if you need it... I got it at autozone, it was in a set of 4, 17mm being the largest, 1/2" drive, $8.00 for the set i think.

yeah, one bit of advice... take the fill plug out first. nothing sucks worse than draining your tranny, only to find that the fill plug is seized, and you have to walk to get some pb blaster, or a breaker bar, etc. cuz you have no fluid in your tranny!  BTW, I changed my tranny fluid last monday, I used the pennzoil sychromesh stuff, and it shifts real smooth (for a jeep) even after wheeling at paragon! oh, and another thing, get a suction pump at autozone, they should be next to the tranny fluids and gear oil. it looks like a pump you would use to inflate a basket ball, but with a clear hose at the end. it was less than $10, and makes filling the tranny 3,401,822 times easier. no funnels, just suck, and pump... suck and pump... oooh, wow, i got to stop now...  |
