well... my jeep is a little on the over-full side since my helper (wife) didn't know i was finished adding oil, and when i turned around she was already dumping in another bottle... god bless her to try and help, so I just left it like it was.. no problems in 500 miles...

 

I just simply loosened the oil pan plug until oil started to drip out. let enough drip out then tightened it back up. nice and simple.

 

Yep. No need to make it complicated.
