P.S. If you plan on draining the tranny for a complete new refill, be sure you can get the filler plug out first.

Buy the 17 mm allen wrench 3/8" socket. The 17 mm solid allen wrench is a pain to use. This tool also allows you to remove the inner pin on the rear diagonal arms.

Or put the 17mm allen wrech in and use a 17mm open-end wrench to turn it; or cut some of the 17mm allen wrech off and use it in a 17mm socket.
