TYB50060 is the correct filler plug for both front and rear diffs on D3 and D4 Thumbs Up

The two pictures are the same, should one be front and one be rear. But like Prof says they are the same, at least on mine they are.

My diff drain plugs are definitely larger than the ones quoted, here you can see them together, old large and smaller ones! I have had to reuse the old ones.

Yes they aren’t right and the small ones look like fill plugs.

That’s both the fill plugs and drain plugs.

No, 60 is the fill with no magnet, 110 is the drain.
This is a picture of the 110 that everything says should be my drain ( smaller one) along side the one I actually have... Much larger.

I changed my front diff, old diff had the big plug, replacement diff had the small plug. Thumbs Up

Edit: you dont need a new plug, just clean the thread with a wire brush, and give it 2 or 3 turns of PTFE tape before you put it back in. Thumbs Up

Yes, I think they had some weird ones on early builds, have reused old plugs. Thanks
