Any 1 know how to remove the trans. Pan to change the filter and leaking gasket? It has a cross member going from 1 side of the frame to the tramsmission, the to the other side of the frame , and if it was moved like 1 inch I could get the pan out, but not sure if that's safe
Any 1 did this before?

You are going to have to support the trans. Usually the tail shaft. Then just unbolt and slide back the cross member. It doesn't have to come out.

When I did this on mine it was a pain and I got soaked in transmission fluid. Like Novaman said you have to support the tail shaft of the transmission. Once you have unbolted it be very careful when sliding the pan out and have a way to tip it the opposite direction from you to drain some of the fluid or you will get soaked in fluid. Luckily I was wearing clothes that could get thrown away when they got soaked.
