I have seen pressurized gear oil tanks for sale but they cost a lot. I have used a soap pump style pump on a cold day under my old dodge and it was a pain in the ass to pump that thick cold oil a few tea spoons at a time. Here are some pics of what my dad and i built. most of the stuff was just laying around the garage.
Materials:
2 gal jerry can
rubber valve stem
misc pipe fittings
length of flexable hose
one hooked pipe on a valve
one bent pipe for the pickup
Cut the vent off the back of the jerry can, then make the hole the right size for your valve stem. The tricky part is guiding the valve stem in place. To do this, remove the valve from the stem, run a length of stiff wire from the filler hole out the vent hole, then slide the stem along the wire and pull it in to place.
As for the hose, that depends on what you have laying around. Just make sure that it will hold pressure at the tank end.
Fill the thank only about half way with oil, then fill it with air till it blows up like a foot ball. Hook your filler in the fill hole, crack the valve, and wait for the oil to drip out. Much easier than pumping.
