How much fluid can I drain for a dry fill?
The manual specs 7.5 quarts for a dry fill, you can only drain 5 quarts from this transmission. I add 4 quarts and check it but I have it on a lift so I can check and add at the same time. You do need the vehicle level so if you can get close you can have a shop adjust the level on a lift.
