Drain plug should be on the bottom and the fill will be on the side. My pto is mounted on passenger side, I filled on drivers. I took a piece of clear hose, maybe 1/2" and connected it to a funnel. Made adding fluid super easy. Of course you can buy a hand pump.

do not use 80-90 wt without checking trans manufacture specs my dana spicer required special 50 wt and someone had put in the wrong oil causng it to always grind into gear If you have a 5 spd spicer I can send you copies of the manual that says what oil to use gary
