I recently found some pictures of the screws you can play with on your or without too much quality or direction.
Since my tranny has never been quite right in my 89, I figured I'd take pictures along the way to show how incredibly easy this really was!! I can't believe I didn't do it sooner! If you have a 2wd, I would highly suggest lifting the front end and putting it on jackstands.
It's a little tight under my 2wd vs my 4wd. I would suggest putting the front on stands anyway so your transmission pan is tilted aft, and you know where the fluid is going to come out when you loosen the pan. I took the truck for a drive to get the tranny fluid warm so it would drain out better for me first.
Once the front end was up, I set up a few pig mats and my oil drain pan under the tranny pan. I loosened the after ones more than the forward ones so it could til even more back.
After it didn't drain anymore, I removed all bolts except 2 that were diagonal from each other. I then pressed the pan back in place with one gloved hand while I removed the other two bolts.
