Default Trying to do oil change, tranny fluid, diff fluid change. need some help

Where can I get the oil filter wrench from?

I see the screw for tranny and diff fluid but how do I drain out and fill with new fluid?
Do I need some kinda pump?

Thank you

An oil filter wrench can be purchased from any autoparts store. Just know that there are different sizes. Get the one that is for the size of filter that you have.
As for the pump, you can get a simple plunger type pump or you can just use a piece of hose and squeeze the fluid in.
The tranny and diff housings have both a drain and fill bolt. Have a look at my "How To's" here to see what I'm talking about. You'll see the "hose" I'm talking about.

Info I could'a used 3 days ago! Did it without the tubing (messy). Now I know...the velvety shift feel is back! Won't wait another 30k miles to do it again.

the best filter wrench looks like a channel lock pliers and is adj. to all sizes to drain the fluid just pull the plug. to fill they make a suction tube where you just stick the hose in the bottle and pull the handle then place in tranny and push .
