This custom-made, low-profile GoWesty hex tool fits where typical 17mm hex bits don’t. For example, the very tight space between our GoWesty 1-3 exhaust header and the drain plug on all manual transaxles. This tool can be used with a 17mm box end wrench for that or any tight-space applications, or slipped into any 17mm shallow socket to create a low-profile hex bit and turned with a ratchet. Way more versatile than any standard 17mm hex bit and priced right too!

Fits: All years and models of Vanagon transaxles, and Syncro front differential.

Pro tip: While you are at it, consider switching to our GoWesty Gear Oil Drain/Fill Plug for easier gear oil changes in the future.

Exactly what I needed

Just be careful, it's easy to strip these due to the location. Go slow!

Trans Plug tool

Convenient little tool that I always keep with me. Low profile makes it easy to confidently unscrew trans plug with a lack of space.

Changed the gear oil with this with no problems. My plugs were stuck and an utter pain. I do not think I could have done it without this or something similar. Worth it.

Time saver

Worked perfect. Kept me from having to make my own. If you do your own fluids you need one in your tool box.
