    So. Many. Stickers.
    86-95 WD-21 Pathfinders with the 5spd had the fill plug on the side. Needed it to be at 45 degrees, not 90, so their fix was to park it at an angle and fill it.

    Once the next gen started production, the TSB changed to "source a 2nd gen transmission case with the proper plug placement and swap"

    That's what I wound up buying. The differential and transmission oil is due to arrive tomorrow and I plan on changing it out Saturday morning.
