Rear differential fill plug

I need a new fill plug for Sterling 10.25 rear on my '92 F-350. Where can I buy one? Looked up NAPA and two other local stores online and they don't carry it. I am certainly not the first one in need of this plug so hopefully some one can tell me where it might be available.
Mine was busted real bad, I did some more damage to it until finally drilled deeper and got it off with pipe nipple extractor from HF. This tool is actually did a nice job, I would highly recommend it. $9.99 well spent.

You should be able to find a replacement at a hardware store. It'll be on the shelf with the galvanized pipe fittings.

Good idea, thanks. But probably as a temporary solution. I'd like to have the original one with the magnet.

Go to Ford and get one off the shelf. They are 16.00. Every dealership has them.

Awesome! Those plugs are so common 1986- current I don't understand why these are not more common in parts stores.
