Fram Sure Drain #SD3

[Gumball]

I would like to install an oil drain valve such as the Fram Sure Drain #SD3. Can anyone tell me what a crossover car might be? I could drain the oil and check the threads but would be without the trooper until I put oil back in it.

There is a dealer here in Tucson that sells the other valve listed in the pinned parts list but he wants $37.00 for it. For that kind of $$ I'll just have to let the oil run down my arm.

Any help will be appreciated.

I got a SD-3 Fram Sure Drain for nz$25 (us$18.53) and very happy with it too. The thread size is M12 X 1.25. I don't practically like oil running down my arm so would pay up to 35 bucks no worries but you would be getting ripped off if you got charged that much if I can buy a made in the USA product out here for half the price you pay there.

Cheers Mike.

Hi Mike,

I knew I could count on someone to come up with the answer to my question. The best thing about owning a Trooper is having friends that are always willing to help you out.

Thanks again,

I have the F-103N Valve (w/Nipple) on mine and put a vinyl tube on it and I don't get oil on me or have to remove any skid plates. LOVE It. Leave the tubing up above of the skid plate and pull in down to drain, just stick the end in an empty milk bottle and let it drain.
