I was changing gear fluids yesterday and like an IDIOT, I drained the transfer case without loosening the fill plug. Now the damn fill plug won't budge. I soaked in PB blaster all night, tapped it firmly with a ball peen, and nearly stripped it with a crescent wrench. I know the crescent wrench is no good for this stuff, but it's the only thing I had that fit. I think I need to go buy a socket big enough.
Is the fill plug the same size as the drain plug? (to go buy socket)
Should I heat it with a torch/soldering iron? (to break any loctite)
Anyone have any tips? (Need this fixed ASAP!)
