How t refill rear axle?
I'm changing to fluid in my rear axle, but there is no fill plug, that I can find.anyway. Do I just put it in through the vent tube connector? Or is there a threaded plug somewhere on the housing?

If it's a 12 bolt it's around the passenger side on the front. It has a square hole and you insert a 3/8 inch socket extension into it.
