Yeah heating it up and trying to take out the plug with a larger diameter bit + M12 impact didn't budge the drain plug.
Ordered this kit to replace my front diff bushings. While trying to get my front diff drain plug out, I noticed the bushings are toast.

My 8-year old Odyssey battery finally lost a cell. So I ordered a full size Odyssey battery to replace it, a group 27F AGM.
I really don't recommend Odyssey batteries unless you already own their proprietary battery charger/conditioner (which I do). What noone talks about these batteries is every 6 months you have to recondition it with the charger or it'll just go dead one day in the parking lot with no warning.

This past saturday I swapped out the OEM spark plugs to E3 spark plugs (I'm hoping to get my 2MPG back).
Replaced the front brake pads.
Replaced my 10 year old 240A Mechman alternator with a new 240A Mechman alternator.
And I welded up some body cracks underneath the battery tray.

Got my truck back from the shop:
Full brake flush and bleed (truck badly needed this).
Replaced my leaking steering rack, outer & inner tie rods.
Got my stripped front diff drain plug out and replaced those with the Lexus hex-head drain plugs.
Replaced my front diff bushings.
Replaced my fan clutch.

Mine was seeping but I didn't see any spots on the concrete (it might've been caught by the skid plate and that's why I didn't see anything on the concrete). My steering fluid reservoir was about half full. It's nice having a stiff, stable steering wheel again.
Got some maintenance and life quality improvements done on the truck.
New visors from Amazon as my old ones have been broken for a decade and kinda hanging down. I'm super happy about this one as it was such an annoyance to have those hanging down.
New rear shock bushings.
Shock covers (I doubt these will last. Kinda mad I bought them)
Replaced the driver's side super bump as the the original one had dry rotted out.

Should just get some King airbumps 
My front is already over-shocked as it isShould just get some King airbumps
By far the best plan of action to this problem. Good call.Should just get some King airbumps
Drove my truck with the new visors and man it's so nice to not have them flop in front of my face anymore. Almost feels like I'm driving a new truck again.
I need to do this. After 2 decades the steering wheel is tired. Where did you get that part?

x2. I don't need a new wheel but the new one looks way more comfortable than this thin POS that's stock.
