Default Freeze plug size info

I just needed to know what size the freeze plugs are in the back of the engine. The ones that are hidden by the tranny and are NOTORIOUS for leaking. Thanks in advance.

Figured I'd give you an update. They are an inch and five eighths freeze pugs.

Pain in the A$$ only because I was working next to a puddle. The only tip I'd give you is to go to the Home depot or lowes and get a 3/4 inch metal tee fitting and a 2 inch pipe to attach it to. Then hammer it in. You could use a socket like everyone says, but the tee gives you more surface area to hit it with. Worked great. I was gonna do the plugs on the heads but those are hard to hit in.
