Plug in differential ?

Hi, I am about to jack up my golf cart and check the oil level in the differential. Took a look and the plug has a square looking hole in the center.......will my 3/4 drive socket driver fit?

Before I jack up the cart, I thought I should get advice about whether I need a special tool to unscrew the plug.

The jack up is going to be "interesting"; I do not have jack stands so I guess I will try to balance the cart on my floor jack (in the rear) and bottle jack in the front.

Any advice is appreciated. :)

Most of the plugs take a allen socket/wrench, I'm not sure what size off hand. If it's a square hole it should take a 3/8 or 1/2 ratchet. You can do it without jacking the cart up but it's easier if you jack it up. Make sure it's level...

hey kistler..if it has a sqaure hole in the plug its probally a 3/8 drive ratchet and no speacial tools needed..they say
a good 30 weight oil is what you put in it also..
i changed mine by putting a floor jack under the rear end in the center also and it didnt hurt anything at all.
its a quik easy drain and refill and you wont have any problems..
im a die hard chevy guy so everything i have gets vavoline,havoline or pennzoil in it but you can use your
favorite oil as well..good luck and hope it all goes easy for you,john


oops,HRC ALREADY BEAT ME TO IT,HAHA
