Default Oil Changing dummy

Hello,

I am a new (to me) harley owner (93 Electra Glide). I thought I would be smart and change the engine, primary, and trans fluids but I quickly found that I need help. The engine oil I am good with. On the primary crank case and trans...I know the amount of fluids, I just don't know where they go...Can anyone help?

trans should have a fill plug on top, and primary you have to remove the large cover.

Both drain plugs are on the bottom.

I have a Dyna, someone with a Electra Glide better confirm it. You should pick up a service manual for your bike if your going to do your own work. Your owners manual should also cover this.
