I thought I would put this out there in case someone with superior knowledge could provide "clearer" guidance. My bro with the hoist really wants to drill and tap the sump indentation below and to the right of the bolt hole that p_gill drilled successfully. His reasoning is that the indentation is there because the case was made originally for a drain plug. Now I believe that Bell's Austen has not installed a drain plug on his recon PTU to my current knowledge, he must have a reason IMO. Anyone that can put this "potential" location to rest??? |

Update: This arrangement leaked a tiny bit. I replaced the square-shaft NPT plug with an NPT plug with an allen socket which allowed me to better control the torque when I tightened it. The square shaft was too close to the adjacent case, my fault for drilling off center. The new plug (with teflon tape) has been leak free for almost two years and thousands of miles. No way to lockwire the new plug but I went easy on the torque and simply inspected it (and checked the torque) frequently for the first year to ensure it wasn't working out. I keep a close eye on it, should be good if it's lasted this long. If you just drill it straight in the first place you could use a shafted plug and lockwire for piece of mind. |
