To everyone that has done this, did you also replace the lines running to/from the top half of the transmission pan? I'm having trouble figuring out how to remove these fittings:
I'm kind of stumped as to what tool to use. I don't have very much clearance, even with my exhaust detached.
They're pretty rusted so I'm considering just cutting them with my Sawzall and try to get a socket over the fitting. Either at the line, or cut the right angle itself and try to get a wrench over that. I ordered all new brackets and parts from Toyota, so I can replace the whole system short of the pan itself, lol.
Any ideas are appreciated!
P.S. Tip while I'm here, be careful ordering transmission filters from RockAuto. They have several listed incorrectly as fitting our trucks. I bought the AC Delco and was already covered in trans fluid before I saw it was not the right one. And put your pan gasket under some books the night before to flatten it out!
