Just use the quart bottles. All you need to do is cut the top, stuck them in the hole, and squeeze. Works great.

Nick - better less messy way is to get a cheap $5-7 drill operated pump - then all you have is one hose in the bottle and one in the diffs or Tcase (work great for that one) -no mess and takes about 40 seconds to put in a quart.

Bill,
Have you tried the way I described? There is no spilling and it works great with zero cost. I generally just put a paper towel down for the overfill.

Yea, the Tcase is a bitch. I did that one a couple weeks ago. I've just never had any trouble with the swivels or the axles doing it the "squeeze" method. I even did the TCase that way even though I have a pump. It was so much faster to do it the squeeze way. Diffs take me about a minute flat.

Guess it also depends on what oil he's using - ie; if it comes those pointy squeeze bottles or not - Amsoil comes in regular engine oil quarts and everthing else I use comes out of bulk containers.
