Default Need Help Cross Reference

I lost my drain plug (bottom) from my axle. Not while driving, while doing a lube change. I am sure I will find it as soon as I buy one. Anyone know what size it is I think it is 3/4" pipe thread. Gasket? Material? I know I could pull the other one but I am leaving on a trip in a couple of days and don't need another axle to do.

I'm pretty sure it's pipe thread but am not 100% on the size. A standard pipe plug should work . You shouldn't need any gasket but you can put some teflon tape or pipe dope on the threads to make sure it don't leak.

Look on the bottom of your drain pan.

I dont know the size off hand but i dont think its a tapper thread.

it's a 2 1/2 ton rockwell axle, call a truck garage and see if they have a parts listing for the drain plug
