Default oil drain plug gasket:

Did a search, didn't come up with anything. I'm about to do my JK's first oil change, and i'm wondering what size drain plug gasket this thing takes, anybody know? Thanks in advance....

If you still have the factory plug, the gasket is made into the plug so you dont need one.

Do you need to use an oil filter wrench to change filter, or just your hands?

Thanks.

Take it off with a wrench but NEVER put it on with a wrench. Hand tight and about 1/4 turn or so.

No wrench needed. No drain plug needed, yet.
