Default Help!! Where's the drain plug on a Moser???

I know the fill plug is on the pass side of the housing...but, do I have to remove the rear cover to drain the fluid?

Nobody knows? This sucks. Someone has to have a Moser and hopefully be able to tell me.

I don't have a Moser, but if it's not in the cover or somewhere low on the diff probably doesn't have one and you need to remove the cover. Someone with a Moser will chime in soon.

There are no drain plugs on the housing. You will have to pull the cover or use a pump to suck out what you can.

That's what I thought, but then I was seeing posts saying you needed a 9/16" hex to remove the DRAIN plug on the passenger side of the differential, but the plug they were referring to seemed way too high to be the drain plug (figuring that's the fill plug), so I was unsure. Guess I'll just pop the cover off tomorrow then. Thanks guys!
