Yeah, I can't emphasize that one enough.....one of the first projects I did on my 300cdt was a diff. fluid change; took out the drain plug, only to find that the fill plug was stuck..

After two hours, half a can of bolt break-free, and most of the skin on my hands, it still hadn't budged.

Lucky for me that I had an explorer on hand with some army surplus tow cables..... that sucker came RIGHT out!

although I wouldn't recommend that , avoid it if possible
