Where is the transmission plug located on a 1987 Jeep Wrangler?

The location of the transmission drain plug on a 1987 Jeep Wrangler depends on the transmission type. There were several options available that year. You'll need to identify your transmission (e.g., AX-5, AX-15, etc.) to pinpoint the plug's location.

There's no single answer without knowing the transmission type.

To find the plug, you'll need to:

1. Identify your transmission: Check your vehicle's documentation, or look for markings on the transmission casing itself.

2. Consult a repair manual: A repair manual specific to your Jeep's year and transmission will show you a diagram with the drain plug clearly marked. This is the most reliable method.

3. Look underneath the vehicle: Once you have an idea of the general area, carefully look under the vehicle. The drain plug is usually located on the bottom of the transmission case; it's often a magnetic bolt.

Caution: Working under a vehicle can be dangerous. Use jack stands, not just a jack, and always use caution when working on your vehicle.
