1990 Jeep Wrangler AX15 (5 speed manual) fluid fill via body drain hole


"yet another" method to fill fluid on the Wrangler's AX-15 transmission. Some methods use a hand pump to pump fluid in. My last change I used the fill via the top by removing the shift lever. I recall that method, upon reassembly, to be "not as easy as I wished". Hmmm - body drain plugs - a nice size and nearby the fill port for a hose to extend into the transmission. Pull out the dedicated fluid fill with tube tool - it's just right for tube length, tube OD, and being able to keep itself upright with a full fluid container. No hands to hold it.  This is my preferred method. Fluid is 10w30/10w40 motor oil.
