View attachment 191995 Click to expand... This diagram is interesting. Those plugs look to be pretty well hidden to me.?? The dipstick on my 770 is on the right side of the axle, right up on top, an arms reach over the right front tire. However, on the 770 there are drain "vents" that you need to remove the tires to get to in order to change the axle oil, the thick, gooey type. Heavy.
