hello all... this question is directed mostly at the LC owners out there, but I'll take help where I can get it..

So my truck has an A343H transmission and I'm looking to flush the transmission and change the filter... the closest I can find equipped on a vehicle sold in North America is the A343F, which was apparently used in the 96-01 Land Cruisers.

I need to know if the pan gasket and filter are going to be the same between the 343H and 343F... ?

I'd ask the local Toyota dealer, but every time I go there, they treat my truck (and me) like they're gonna get an STD if they get too close... the last guy actually stepped back from the counter, looked at the floor and kept repeating "we won't touch it" every time I spoke...

also, if anyone knows how many bolts the LC pan has, that'd help to be sure... so far I've come across one that says 19, but most say 17.

thanks in advance guys!
