Lots of great help can be found using the search function. Need to know whether it's an auto or manual.

I used those write ups as well. Very helpful. I the manual transmission write up Eddie shows how to make a tool from a coupling. FWIW I did this so there was no cutting and grinding needed...



Only a couple bucks at lowes

Changing the manual transmission fluid is a pain. And, FYI, unless you've driven your '13 JK a lot, or it's been contaminated during river fords (easily checked by dipping your finger into the fill port), you probably don't need to. If you decide to, do be very careful how much torque you put on the drain plug. Too much and you'll crack the rear extension housing. It's a very expensive repair. Don't ask me how I know.

Yesterday I received the transfer and transmission oils from Amsoil and was planning on changing them this weekend. Thanks for the heads up!

Does this sounds about right?

Yes, but good luck getting a torque wrench on it. Remember: Crow's feet at 90° won't affect your torque wrench reading.
