Hello,
That would be 17 mm. If you take a M10 bolt of about 2 cm and you put on that two nuts turned against each other, you have an adaptor you can use with your normal how-do-you-call-it wrench/tool/thingy.
I hope you get my drift....

Hi Charlie 40,
Took a look at JK online, try J11205 on the tools list. Think thats what you need. Douwe's idea is brill though!

You can buy a 17mm g/box plug remover from Halfords--takes a half inch drive rachet--you wont get that in tho---trick is (I find) is hold the bit in the filler plug socket & get a 17mm open end spanner round it---if you aint undone it before it may be very tight---be careful not to slip or you will round off socket(then you are frelled!)----because of this(imho)tis better to spend £3 on the proper tool----

as long as you are in the right gear
I always try to engage 'fat bloke gear' when undoing the drain and fill plugs on the gearbox
