I changed my '93's transmission fluid and filter last night (2WD). Had a bear of a time getting the pan off, spilling fluid on the exhaust pipe. I couldn't see any way to get the pan free, channeling the fluid into an oil-drain pot, without getting at least some fluid on the frame and exhaust, which form four close sides around and below the pan.
I cleaned up with brake cleaner so there was no smoke when I started the engine. Still, there has to be a better way.
Any tips for me? I plan to do this again soon.
