Guy I change my front diff before got it to loosen easy. Second time around not so much. I had luck with 50 degree wrench but now it won't work with little to no room to turn. Has any one have a good tool they used for it. I also used a long extension wrench. Just wanna hear what worked for you to decide what I can do thanks.

 

The front fill plug is a pain in the butt.
I bought an offset wrench for this job, but it didn't work for me. Luckily, the Dewalt combination wrench that I use for the engine oil plug did. It has a slight bend at the closed end. I've done it twice so far, and it worked both times. Hope it works for you too.

 

This is the link for the exact same one I bought from amazon.

 

Yeah I have a wrench like that but just as soon as I put it on it hit the are that sticking out. So no room to make a turn. I might take to a shop and let them deal with it for now.

 

Perhaps an offset extension wrench paired with a stubby socket could do the trick?? I think this would be my last resort before taking it to a shop.

 

Weird. I used that link and ordered one, but they shipped the wrong item, they shipped a DWMT723020SP, which has a ratcheting end that is not angled. Set up a return for the wrong item sent, and had them ship another, which also arrived as the wrong item. Started a return for it also. The seller apparently doesn’t stock the angled end wrench anymore, and ships something else.

 

What a hassle...
It looks like Ace Hardware has the same wrench on its website. The model number is DWMT72215.

I took out my own wrench to confirm the model number. Hope this wrench will work for you.
