Single hex every time. Love the channel

hi The owner has access to a shifter LOL . 12point/Impact sockets never damages plugs . Changing fill and drain plug washers also helps . Prevents overly tight plugs . Aftermarket drain [magnet] or fill are available . Only find damaged plugs from poor previous owner maintenance or corrosion on rear diff plugs from launching boats and no hose down after . Penrite do a mini-pump for most plastic bottles .

Wurth make a good set of those corkscrew sockets.

Twist sockets

Yes. It is 49 N•m.

How would you go about getting a fully rounded nut, what's your method using a chisel ? Thanks mate 👍

I went for an oil change and they messed up my front diff drain plug. It has chisel smash marks and is leaking now. Still hasn't been opened.
