Think this may give you a head start. He used the fumoto brand I believe.

I use Fumoto valves on all my vehicles and have never had an issue. Makes an oil change significantly easier, however I would not use one on an off road vehicle unless I had a skid plate to protect it.
I have a Fumoto on my Crosstrek. It is handy and tucked out of the way on the Subaru.
Next time I change the oil on my wife's Highlander (drain is more exposed), I'm going to install one of these:

We sell both types but I prefer these over the Fumoto. I would use the compact system and 45 degree drain hose for a Jeep.

That's exactly what he is asking for, an easier system to drain without turning his skid into an oil kiddie pool.
That’s what I was digging g for thanks a ton for the info.
Ordered this morning thanks for the info
I just installed the Stahlbus with my UCF engine skid.

Futomo Drain Valves. I have been contemplating this for my kids rigs since they are the "Millennials" but they only change the oil twice a year. I don't know if it's any of an added value to them or good if they have to do it the old way.
