If you're any good with a welder, you can make one. Just drill a hole at the bottom above the attach ring, weld in a flat nut, install a short bolt with teflon tape wrapped around the threads.

Wow. Nice, but a bit pricey.

I like these better, but let me ask a noob question, how often do you have to change fluids if you're not a hard core off-roader. Seems like a lot of money for something that doesn't occur too often.
