Yes and it was a PITA that I won't repeat any time soon. I figure since I use The Best Full Syn Amsoil ATF, and change it at around 30-40K miles, it is just fine doing it the old fashion way by dropping the pan. |

drop the pan, change out the filters, install a drain plug, then change it a few more times with some driving in between. you will get most of it out. ( i know it will mix with the old fluid but its better than nothing) |

I think a commercial transmission flush is the best (drop the pan & change filter first) it's the only thing that really gets all of the old fluid. |

my jeep has 62k miles, and i dont want to have it "flushed", i heard bad things, if you do it at that higher milage, without having had it done every 15k miles before that. but i guess theres different ways of doing it. but i need to figure something out because i want to get it done, so ill keep an eye on this thread |
