Hey everyone, is there a link or answer to which rubber line at the radiator i'm removing to insert in a bucket to drain and fill my trans quart by quart?? I did search and nothing came up. Been some years since i last did this.... thx! 3rd gen runner V6

 

If your looking at the rad Passenger side is supply/send line & driver side is return to trans, if your looking at the side of the trans, lower line is return, upper line is supply/send.

 

If you're in the RH side of the vehicle and looking at the transmission, the steel tube going towards the back of the transmission is the return line (cooled ATF) and the steel tube coming from the front of the transmission is the send line (hot ATF).

Are you doing a flush? If yes, do you need to do it (strawberry milkshake)? if there's no need to do a flush, just do a drain and fill. then do another drain and fill after 100 miles, and then after another 100 miles. drain the atf from the atf drain plug and after closing the plug, add atf at the atf dipstick tube
