YEAH, I know that one.... good thing I removed it first....I had to wait until the tranny was out for a clutch to get enough torque on the plug to get it off...

Changing the oil is rediculously easy. I put Valvoline in mine, haven't had any problems. Changed both the transfer case and the manual transmission at the same time. Took me about ~40 min start to finish.
If I had it to do over again, I would use a HAND PUMP to put the oil in instead of the syringe contraption I currently have.
Oh, and be waiting on that oil. Bob has a great writeup on it. And he ain't kiddin about saying it comes shooting out like a missile either!
I used THIS guide.
