Is there any good way to add a drain plug to the transmission pan on a 904? I hate having to drop the pan to change out the fluid. |

I braise a 1/2 20 nut to the pan, then drill through the center of the attached nut and then clean out the hole. You can then use a replacement oil pan drain plug. |

Or you can go to the boneyard and look for a 904 pan with a factory drain plug, a lot of the later model pans had them.The aftermarket deep pans (chrome ond non-chrome) have drain plugs. And for the "meatball" mechanic, one buddy of mine would disconnect one of the trans coolent lines and stick a piece of rubber hose on the end, leading to a bucket or can. He would start-up the engine and pump-out most all of the fluid before dropping the pan. It works pretty good as long as you shut it off as soon as the fluid stops flowing! DD |

And who makes the best overhaul kits? I found a Fram kit at Schucks but didn't want to grab it just yet. |
