I need to dump all the fluids on 73 HD6EP! looking for the oil drain and fill plug for Trans and Primary's . Also I need to change the engine oil and theirs no room between the frame and engine to pull out the oil filter canister, How do get it out ? Where is the Drain plug for the engine? I just bought this Dozer Monday and pulled all the filters and cleaned the trans screen and need to dump the trans oil and engine and Fuel Filters. Any Idea Where you can get a good deal on Battery's for this they are huge ?

Batteries = 24 V system / Get two automotive 12V 700 to 900 CCA batteries and it will do fine. Been running them in all my things for years with no problem and then most have a 5 year warranty.

Transmission drain should be in center of rear housing as the ring gear and trany share the case oil supply.

Look in the belly pan should be a door to access the engine drain.

Hey How do you get the oil filter out to 1973 HD6EP it seems that they don't give you enough room to pull the housing out? Any Ideas where oil drain plug is. Do you need to take the rock Shields off to get to it?
