    Doing some work on the truck and decided I would swap the fluid in the t-case...put a wrench on the drain plug, turned and it was really easy but didn't really come out at all. I don't remember overtightening on the last install but the plug was definitely broken. I got a small flat blade...

    I have a new to me 90 and changed all the fluids today. This brought about one problem. I removed the transfer case drain plug. It was neither unusually hard or easy to remove, seemed quite normal. Once removed, I noticed metal coils stuck in the threads of the plug. On re-install the plug...
