I am really overdue. I gotta change out my ATF and possibly my differential.I have the how-to for differential using the 80-90 stuff. I gotta go pickup the right product for ATF, nothing crazy just some OEM stuff. Question is (this may sound dumb, never did an auto by myself). 1) Where is the plug located on the tranny for draining?2) Do you fill it where the resevior is under the hood?3) Capacity?Thanks in advance, I gotta really get on this before I have no cash when I get a house lol.

Thanks all so far.I hopefully will get this done come by next week.My main concern right now is the steering wheel shimmy when braking.
