Rear Diff

I went to do a winter checkup on my truck this weekend and wad going to check the diff. fluid and muck to my suprise I coulds not find a drain/fill plug on the darn thing. The front had one but the rear did nit have one that I could find.

It is a Ford 8.8 10 bolt with 3.55 limitied slip if that matters. I found a plug at the very top Ifacing the bed) is this it?????

There should be one in the front, just up and to the driver's side from the pinion flange. That's the fill line. To drain it you have to pull the plate on the back.
