Default Transmission oil pan with drain plug.

Anyone familiar with a commercially available source for a transmission oil pan fitted with a drain plug?

Well at least the part numbers are reasonable . Might have to repair the pan somehow . Trouble getting the plug out ? Took me several days of soaking with penetrating oil and a long leverage bar . You should have seen the oil .

OP probably has a pan with no drain fitted...some didn't. I don't recall ever seeing a date nor VIN associated with the changeover. I have a 95 with no glove box, and 2 '96's; all have xmsn drain plugs.

Depending on you situation if you have stuck or damaged hex nut you might consider sucking the old oil out through the servicing pipe with a egg pump or evacuation pump . You can take a 1 gallon wine bottle and hook it up to vacuum cleaner . A rubber cork can be obtained from homebrew supply store as well as tubing and a 1 gallon bottle at a glass recycle bin . You have to warm up the oil alittle bit to flow easier . You may not get all the old out but better then none .

The dipstick tube fitting can be removed and the oil drained.
