paulmars Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 2003 toyota tacoma 2wd 5sp 2.4L the transmission drain and fill plugs have very shallow hex heads and no matter how hard I try, my socket has slipped off several times rounding the corners. id like to get plugs with better heads. Does anyone know what might fit? I like the never toyota Allen heads, but Id settle for a standard hex head. What is the bolt diameter, the thread count and length? Id rather not have to use them one more time, so checking when they are out next time might mean using them again. Also, I have no access to dies to measure these. Ive asked toyota, but as usual, they are no help. Ive asked a few aftermarket automotive parts makers, but again no help. pa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyota Owners Club Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 You could take the old plug to a motor factors / store and see if there is anything (even engine oil sump plug) to match the thread size. I'm sure something will fit it from another vehicle manufacturer possibly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
