Ridin' Dirty | Yeah, it's that simple. Drain, refill. It's normal to see some shavings on the magnet. No worries. |

Member | I used Amsoil, Synchromesh. I chose this over the Redline, only for the fact that the Amsoil meets MS-9224. __________________ Green Jeep Club Member #398 "Honorary Villige Idiot of the Month" |

Senior Member | Are you sure its not just a little bit of leftover oil residue on the plug? __________________ Black 2006 Golden Eagle Blue 2007 Ninja 250 Badlands 09/19/09 Badlands 10/24/09 Badlands 11/14/09 |

Registered User | spray the drain plug and fill plug areas with brake or contact cleaner, should get rid of any residual oil |

Functional Jeepaholic | no offense, but its one of the easiest jobs to do, like changing motor oil. get a new torque wrench and recheck it. __________________ Quote:

Registered User | this might sound stupid and i don't even know if it's possible but, i seem to remember that you need 2 differnet sized hex sockets to remove these plugs, could you have mixed them up when insatalling them? if the plugs are in the correct spot, i would remove the drain plug (drain oil in to a clean container so you can refill your trans.) and inspect the threads for damage ex. cross threading, as well as the threads in the trans. wrap teflon tape around drain plug threads and reinstall, i know the fsm says 22 ft lbs but it is just a drain plug to keep oil in, i am sure a little less torgue will be fine |
