remember the gasket is reusable..... the trans holds 13.9 qts of fluid and dropping the pan dumps 5qts, so it would probably be more cost effective to get a trans flush done at a shop and get 95% of the fluid changed instead of 36% with dropping the pan, if you are intent on changing the filter get the flush done first then drop the pan and change the filter.
