the rear diff is a rubber plug be careful and pop it out. Fluid should be right at the edge. Transfer case fliud can be checked and filled at the hex head plug in the back of it. Same for the front diff.

Also what fluids go where for the diffs and transfer case?
On another note, I am bringing tent, first aid kit, sleeping bag, and a full size spare. What else should I pack?
