Just want to be sure the tool set I'm ordering will cover the diff filler plug on the DII.
Anyone know what metric size this puppy is?
Many thanks,
Chris.

Diff Filler Plug Size?
- Thread starter cdodkin

I know that works for the drain plug, but my front diff fill plug looks like a normal hex nut - a large one at that.
With a thin slot cut in the top as well - never seen anything quite like it!
Anyone?

Thanks guys - looks like I'm covered SAE or Metric.
Can this plastic cap be removed leaving just the 1/2" drive port underneath, or is it permanent?

glad to have helped but i can't take all the glory, if you look at landrover owner international magazine website(www.lro.com) under discovery there's an article about the diff plug. but no you cannot remove the cap landrover replaced the old 1/2" steel plug with a full plastic version it's the same as fitted to rangerover p38 diffs also log onto www.difflock.com as well.
