Swivel housing filler plug size?
Thu, 13/11/2008 - 13:44
Hi all,
Can anyone tell what size tool I need to unscrew the filler plugs in the swivel housing? I know it's tempting to comment on questions about tool sizes but it's the square ratchet socket thing I'm referring to :-)
Thx!

I think it is a standard 19mm socket. I always use a socket on mine.

its a hex same size as for the oil drain plug not easy to find, I got mine as a special order from a fixings firm.

It's a 14mm hex on post-1982 (I believe this is the year) G-Wagens.
