Went out today and drove the truck around and got the trans up to temp and checked the fluid - only got burned once lol. Anyways the fluid seems low but the color doesn't look too bad. What do you all think - I should be fine to change it, right?
I very carefully drilled a hole in the bottom of my pan to drain the fluid. Than removed pan and filter. Than expanded the hole and welded in a drain plug. Reinstalled all and it has been great. Much cheaper than buying a whole new pan.
good idea since I’m adding a plug anyway. Where exactly did you drill the hole?

As already said, drain it. You don’t know how severe the use was prior to you.
