Thanks for the recommendation on the Amsoil fluids, though. I used Redline and wasn't impressed with the shifting quality (overall I preferred the OEM fill).

I got a Penzoil transfer pump that I got from Amazon and it worked wonderfully for the differential.


With the transmission, I inserted the EZ Pack tip and then held it with one hand while I rotated the bottom bag up towards the engine bay, there was plenty of room since as it empties it becomes easier to maneuver.



Though the pump is handy, it can become a little messy with residual oil left on the hoses or inside the pump.
