Hey fella's, it's time for my 30K tranny service on my 03 QC Hemi. Is this a relatively easy job or should I pay to have it done???
Does anyone have any tips to make the process easier, or comments on what not to overlook??? Does the shop flush the tranny or just drain it and refill???
I believe that it requires replacing a filter and tightening the bands.
Also, any tips on making the job of changing the plugs any easier (specifically the rear plugs) would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

If the factory would have installed a tranny pan drain plug, it would make it a lot less messy of a job. There are 2 filters to replace and there are no bands to adjust. You can remove the tranny lines from the right side and use a Napa tranny flush kit. Don't loose the small retainer clips for the lines. As far as the plugs? Use a double swivel end extention. For installing the plugs, use a piece of fuel line and slide it over the plug insulator. This will help in getting the plugs threads started. Don't forget to use anti sieze on the plugs threads before you reinstall them.
