There is a better way to flush all of your tranny fluid without jacking up the car and making a mess. Of course, it will take at least 12 quarts of Mobile 3309 ATF and 3 empty gallon containers.
The transmission cooler is in the radiator, and on the driver's side are 2 hoses that serve the cooler. The upper hose is the output hose. Just unplug it from the radiator, attach a clear hose to extend to the gallon jug, marked at the 2 quart line and start the car. When 2 quarts have pumped out, turn the car off, add two quarts to the tranny through the dipstick hole, and repeat the process until you have gone through all 12 quarts.
Total time to do this is about 30 minutes. Remove the air intake hose from the radiator to the air cleaner box for easier access to the dipstick.
