I replace filter and five or six quarts of ATF +3 as specified in owner's manual. I also installed a drain plug in the pan. Here is the question: Now at 121K transmission fluid still looks nice and Red. Should I replace filter and fluid? Just fluid? Leave it alone? What interval do you guys recommend? I don't tow and no heavy use.

I always recommend every 30-35k miles but do filter and fluid. think about it would you change your engine oil without replacing the filter. 70 duster full chassis super pro 416 CNC Indybrock heads 727 w/brake best so far 1.212 60 6.219 in 1/8 at 110.88 9.768 at 137.81 1/4
