Changing ATF. Torque Converter?
02' 1500 5.9 Automatic
We have been towing a lot lately so I would like to give the transmission some lovin'.
From what I am hearing is that when I open up the pan on the bottom of the tranny I am leaving the majority of the ATF behind in the 'torque converter'. (correct term?)
I would like to drain all of it if possible.
Is it difficult to get to the torque converter? Special tools required?
Thanks.

+1 Some shops have a tranny vacuum that will suck the entire transmission dry. Its 80 bucks where i live.
