What has always worked for me is this. Sta lube makes a square bottle of
various gear oils, and sells a pump for said bottles separately. Fill diff
first. Then reload bottle with the oil for the tranny. Place a few
newspapers on the drivers floor and place pump there, it is then easy to reach
in and place the end of the hose in the top of trans and start pumping. No
muss no fuss.
Hope this helps
