M186 & M200 diff drain plug?

[WillIeB]

Due to crappy winter weather, I'm not able to go check myself.

2021 JL Sport S Dana 30 front, Dana 35 advantek rear - do they have drain plugs?

Thanks.

Nope, you have to remove the cover and inspect the gears. But while your at it , you can install some nice ARB covers either drain plugs.

Just checked, Rear has a drain plug, front does not.

Are the gaskets reuse able?

I hate diff drain plugs, nearly lost one on the Rubicon with half my front diff oil! I'd trim that plug off really short, weld it in and then fill weld the divot...no more problems.

This is interesting to know, my 2021 JLUS with a 30/44 combination has drain plugs on both the front and rear differentials.
