Just done mine but not sure. Neither is Dan because when (if) you order from Duckworths, you may get the wrong one like me and one other chap.

Why change the diff plug? In over 55 years of driving and maintaining cars, I've never need to replace a diff plug. Ron B. VK2OTC

No magnets on the filler plug, and I also have never replaced one. when putin plugs back in use some plumbers teflon tape. |

Thanks for the reply guys. Yes if it comes out ok then I can put it back in, however it's pretty rusty under there & for the cost of these I'll like to replace it or at least have a new one handy.

I hadn't thought about rust - it's not something that comes to mind here - Land Rovers have an in-built rust prventative system. Ron B. VK2OTC

Thanks Lounge_on_wheels. That sure looks like it from what I can see (Obviously it's Not been out for a long time as heavily corroded).

Can you get a cold chisel on it to get it going round ? .

Have you asked Dan at Duckworths, supplied VIN, etc. Usually works, although I see what GGDR was saying above. .

if you gonna bang something in, try Torx bit, oversized, it will have more grip, or cut a groove in the bolt with dremel like tool and use screwdriver with wrench.
