Just draining the oil doesn't mean you will remove all of the moisture and what ever else has built up over time. You really should drop out the center section and clean it out and inspect it every once in a while. You made the choice to invest into a hi-performance part so take care of it and it will take care of you. I have witnessed in my own car that after a few seasons of abuse that cleaning it out and brake cleaning it really helps in driveability and durability.

Youre gonna send a $2500 rear end back, spend a couple hundred on shipping back, because you forgot to order a drain plug?

I ordered mine from DLS and it skipped my mind when I placed the order... I knew it had to be specified but I totally forgot. Luckily I called in time to have one installed before it was assembled. THANKS SCOTT!

Just have one installed before you install the rear in your car.
