Oh, and this thread is not just derailed. It's in another terminal altogether.

OK, hint: Hymie said it.
I have no clue then.
From the same TV series where Bernie Kopel said "Nein, nein, Nintey-Nine."
And no excuses, John. Unlike Trevor, you are definitely the right age for this one.

This was a quirk of the Ford 9". There were some years that the fill plug was on the housing, and some years that the fill plug was on the third member. So you could combine parts such that you have no fill plug at all. Whoever did that might have just filled it through the vent tube with an approximate correct amount of fluid. Unless there is a fill plug on the back of the housing you missed.
That's what I'd read too... While it might be more work I'd still rather have a fill hole on the center section so I could fill it & check the fluid level when I wanted...
Just make sure you understand what outers you have. Chevy outers vs. Ford. It's a matter of understanding if the knuckle is 6 vs. 5 stud, respectively. They're different stub shaft lengths.
maybe someone more knowledgeable than me could weigh in on how bad an idea it would be to drill and tap a hole either in the housing or third member, or if you really need to have someone weld a bung into the housing.
Probably fine to drill and tap, people do it all the time to add ARB airlines
Place a strong magnet next to the bit to retain shavings. Also, apply a liberal amount of grease to the tap. You'll be fine.
I'd drop the center section out and then find out what the measurements are for where I need to place the fill hole and I'd drill it and tap it. As others said it's done all the time for an ARB port this is just a larger hole.
