Does anyone know the size hex needed for the drain and fill plugs on the SRT 215mm differential?

No one? Oh well...

On a bright note, the shop that installed my SRT diff apparently nicked the axle seal on the right side and it was leaking when driving only. I took it to the Dealer I bought it from under the 3/36k warranty to get it fixed and they replaced both seals for me on the Diff under warranty even though it was a different than original rear end! Will wonders never cease!

Now I have to figure out somehow what the hex size is for the drain and fill plugs so I can put the good lube in that I have...

14mm Hex

I used a Big good quality allen key that I cut a nub off and use a 14mm End wrench.

Works like a charm

yep, 14mm hex key. should be able to pick that up at many hardware/tool stores, or if you like shiny expensive tools (or have to for work), buy it from a tool truck like me.

Thanks guys. I may already have one of those mated to a socket that I can use. I will have to check.
I appreciate your input!
