Unhappy transmission maintenance

Will you please help or give me some pointer on changing my rear end and transmission gear oil. I am uncertain on what plug to remove to fill and drain the transmission. I have not had a chance to look at the rear end would appreciate any and all help.
Thanks

If you look at the rear end from the back of the car, you will see two large plugs on the dif. The bottom one(24mm) is the drain plug. The upper one(23mm) is the fill plug.
I haven't drained mine before, but I had such a big leak, that I had to top it off. I bought a funnel with a hose attached, seperated the hose from the funnel, and taped the hose to the bottle. I then squeezed the bottle to get the fluid in the dif. Not the best way, but it overcame the gravity factor(as I wasn't able to figure out how to get the bottle above the dif. to pour it naturally).
Good luck.
Jim
