Refilling the Diff/rear end

True rookie question, I see the rear end drain plug, Is the "breather" bolt hole what is used to refill it ? I don't see any other place, WSM, parts book don't show a fill plug(that i could find).
Thanks again,
It'll be good to meet everyone attending the SOS this weekend. (NO rain right?)

There is a fill/level plug part-way up the diff casing at the front (see diagram; filler is part #15). Fill it through this until it starts to come out, then put the plug back in. Don't use the beather or you'll overfill it and it will all come out of the axles and into your brake drums.

Thanks Nick, That's the same diagram I was "looking" at, I saw that plug on the car but it didn't register...
