Yep, that's the exact one. Good linking Sgtblue!

What i used was a 1/2 drive with a 2 inch extension. because there is no way to fit the ratchet without an extension. hopefully that helps you. just dont over torque it when you tighten them.

open up the filler plug first. other wise, you may drain all the fluid out and can't open the filler plug.

thanks flipmode45. i caught that in one of the linked threads too. did the first fluid change after breaking in the kaaz last nite. no problem. i actually did it without jacking the car up at all. laying down and reaching wasn't any more of a pain than jacking up all 4 corners. but damn! that stuff stinks. now my garage smells like it.

night and day difference though. much smoother and quieter, so far hardly any clunking too. good advice in this thread y'all.
