Siphon pumps
 
Ok so I know most of you guys here like to do your own work on your vehicles, so was wondering what everyone uses to siphon lubricants from the rear and front diffs??

I use a 110v marine oil change pump and just stick it in the fill hole. You can find them on Ebay. Mine is an old Marine Sunstrand with a 2.5gallon tub. Just make sure the fluids are warm before you pump. It's similar to this type of product -

Very cool. Has to be alot easier then using those hand pump models. I saw the hand versions at Harbour Freight for under $15.00 but was thinking that pumping, holding the draw tube in the axle, and making sure the exit hose stayed in the bucket might be kind of difficult.

I like the electric model much more. :beerchug:

Um, yeah. Both diffs have a drain plug
