    Anyone found an OEM alternative for the front diff fill plug. As you all know we currently need an Allen wrench to remove both the fill and drain.

    Have already purchased the Lexus front diff drain plug. Toyota / Lexus PN 90341-24016

    Tried searching but didn't find anything for the fill plug.

    THANKS!

    Weld a hex head bolt on on that drain plug. I did this on my 1st gen and it worked like a charm.
