How hard is it to put a drain plug in it, I swear the engineers had to sit down and smoke crack before designing these trucks, my 2007.5 6.7 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4, I've changed so much crap to make things easier to work on. From completing an entire delete, new Black Market Fuel Filter swap out for that junk Plastic Fuel Filter that ended up leaking. New GR Diesel Valve Cover to delete that stupid CCV Filter, a complete AC System, and a few other mods, the next thing is to install the REVMAX Valve Body, get rid of that stupid Plastic Nippele that broke off and helped ruin my Transmission at 188,600mi that I had to replace so I bought the PPE Filter and Steel Nippele, next is a new Transmission Cooler and lines.
