Does anyone know offhand the size of the gearbox fluid fill nut and the drain nut? I need to purchase sockets for them.

Don't know the exact size but it's over 1" for the fill. Plenty of room to
undo with an adjustable wrench once the dipstick is removed. As for the
drain no idea because imo it's impracticable to use. I use a pump to suck
out old oil thru the filler.
