I'm thinking about changing my own oil. I have an 03 Ext and wanted to know where my drain plug is and if the filter is in a hard place to get to. Also, do they still lube the chassis on these trucks? If so , where do I lube? I wanted to do my own oil change but do all the things that the dealer does. Thanks in advance!

The drain plug is easy to find on the pan, the filter is fairly easy to get to, there are about 6 (aprox) grease fittings, upper & lower ball joints and a few on the steering rod

Ive managed to find 11 grease fittings under my truck.
