there are 2 bolts that you have to remove in order to drain the fluid which are on the bottom. Then to fill it there are 2 bolts on the side they look square. The tranny needs to be filled from there. They sell a tool that sucks the fluid from the bottle then when you push in the handle the fluid is fed through the hose and into the tranny. You'll know when its full when fluid starts to come out when that happens put the bolt back in and start the other hole. I think I used 5 quarts something like that. I also put a little where the shifter is.

The tranny oil drain is on the bottom of the tranny, the fill plug is about 6 inches away. Just unscrew both plugs to drain, then screw the drain plug back in(don't forget the washer!), and fill 'er up with the other plug until fluid begins to come out of the fill plug.
You're done.

One thing that makes this job easier is one of those pumps you can buy at Kragen. The fill plug is in a hard-to-get-at place, and the flexible hose makes filling not such a chore.
