You diddn't mention if you've got a 4x or not. On my 97 4x4 you just go in
from the passenger side whell well and its sitting right there. From that
standpoint its very convenient however because its almost totally inverted
it retains a lot of oil and I've never been able to do a change without
dumping oil all over the place.
