Nah, they are all the same (bigger) size in NZ ;-). Just got lucky with
that or else that would have been another upgrade in the pipeline. I have
put a ------sheet together to budget for everything and its being coded
based on priority (high / moderate / low) and timeframe desired (6 / 12 /
18 months). I think the very first one would be switching to Old Man Emu
suspension, then 32 inch mud terrains. I think I have mentally prepared my
wife that its a life long process of continuous improvement, so she should
be brave and not question my sanity so frequently and regularly.

TW;
If you have a Dana 44 rear, don't you have a drain plug in the bottom of
the pumpkin back from the pinion flange? If you want to simply replace the
fluid without dealing with the cover, this should do it for you. If your
Dana44 is the same as my Dana44?
