I'm in the middle of changing my fluids. I have a 5spd 94 4x4. I found 2 drain/fills.... but they're not magnetic like the rest...and it's not in the "bottom" of the trans. WHERE THE HELL IS IT?? I found one on the passenger side pretty low...but it's not magnetic nor 100% at the bottom. I found another higher one on the driver side.... Can someone help me with this....
thanks.

I looked in my factory toyota manual and there are only 2 drain and fill plugs. And you're right the drain plug doesn't look like it's all the way on the bottom.

Ok, job is all done. 10 quarts of Mobil 1 gear lube later...:eek: rear end, transfer case, trans, and front diff. I noticed the trans is angled....so what I did is jacked up the rear to "level" the trans. I got quite a bit more fluid out of it that way. you have to have the rear wheels about 4" off the ground. Probly about another 1/3 of a quart out. I also filled it while i had it leveled. Probly the way the shop manual says to do it....least thats the way i'm doing it. Kinda goofy.
