Ok I got all the info I need from you guys regarding how much and what kind of oil to use and stuff but umm I feel like stupid for asking but how do you drain the oil? I know you pull the drain plug but there is no where for the oil to run? In the owners manual it says I need a special drain hose dealy thinger.... Seems like lots of hassle just to drain the oil. I know you guys probly have tricks or i'm missing somthing? Thanks again guys!

On the clutch side there is a dip in the bellypan under where the secondary would be. In the bottom of that dip is a drain hole for 2 reasons. for melted snow to dissipate and to to drain DD oil int oan old cake pan or small bucket. Youll have to wipe out the bellypan really well afterwards but it works.
