This is the New Generation Futomo valve:

Futomo

Can be rotated 360 to help mitigate installation issues. Also body of valve can be held stationary as through bolt is tightened.

Disclaimer: My machine is new, got a ways to go before fluid changes, so I don't really have a clue. I won't be rock crawling so I'm looking for convenience and advice.

I just leave the mess. It helps when you hit something hard and that extra lubrication between the frame and skid prevent any scratches.

Thanks! I've always wondered why the UPS driver leaves puddles in my driveway. Thought he was just marking territory, but your explanation makes more sense. :)
