^^^ nothing hard about that one.

IF U FUCK UP YOUR DRAIN PLUG.

1)remove the drive shaft.
2) jack up the front of the car a good amount.
3) wait to drain.
4) put the driveshaft back in.
5) undo your shifter, fill the tranny with gear oil

Fucking A! who gives a shit about rounded off drain plug.

lol

if you ronded that bolt you can weld a tool right to it and take it off that way if you can weld. if not take it to a shop and weld it.

use a 1/2 inch drive to loosten the drain hole, but like stated earleir undo fill plug first to make shure.
