Aha, so you just put the end of the hose in the tranny fill hole and make sure your "source" (the other end of the hose) is higher than the tranny and voila! Do you undo the shift arm bolts to give the hose a clearer shot at the fill hole? And, the rails, do you drop them from the connection point just forward of the tranny?... or at the back skid plate? (I was just under there today but my memory is the s---s.) Since this is done so infrequently I can see that doing it right, if a little painfully is well worth it. Bob
