I used this one (looks like it is out, but there are several like it): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013WJT8N0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

removed the 'bleeder' fitting and stuck the hose down the fill plug hole and it did the job, but I also had the rear cat off for another repair so I don't know how much room you have with the cat in place.

Did you use it to just suck it out or both

Just to suck it out, I used a hand fluid transfer pump to refill, I'm not sure the exact one I used as I've had it for years but I think it was this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BQW5LK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Has anyone considered doing a tapping the PTU and putting a valve on it for draining and filling? Was looking at doing it but wasn't sure if there has been success with that style or if its even been done before.

I’ve just seen people talking about adding a drain plug at the bottom

Was thinking more like a ball valve vs a drain plug.

Ok like a check valve. If you do something like that please post

obviously that is a part for our oil pan drain but i dont see why it wouldnt work if you're gonna drill and tap it, why not go with this option? if the oil is to thick for this one i think they make larger sizes as well, but for only 25 bucks it sounds like its worth trying.

That could work, I was thinking something more like a 3/8 thread 90 degree valve with a barb fitting. I know my dad has stuff like that at the 3m plant he works in (that's where i got the idea).

Figured if the oil gets too thick you can always hook up a suction pump to that barb fitting and suck everything out, then fill it and turn off the valve. Less mess!

They make hose end adapters for them as well if that's what you're looking for check them out. https://www.ezoilchangevalve.com/

With the exhaust pipes right underneath, I'm not sure you'd have room.

Perfect thread. This morning I was just thinking about what types of pumps to use to remove the PTU oil. Yayeeeee
