Boris113 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Having just fitted a new R380 from Ashcrofts, I noticed the drain plug on the old and new boxes are different and wondered why that might be? The original gearbox in my 2005 Td5 has a magnetic drain plug which accepts a 3/8 ratchet to undo it, basically a smaller version of an axle drain plug. The recon unit has the conventional 32mm plug with a copper O-ring. The threaded hole in the original box is much smaller and the large plug won't fit in. Not a problem as such but curious if anyone know why it was changed and when? Thanks, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
