Nobody has said anything about suspension?

I checked it with a white rag and it's reddish in color. Additionally, there appears to be a drain plug on mine. However, I'm planning on changing the filter so the pan is coming off. Any advice on putting the pan back on. Should I put it back on dry or use a sealant?

Are you saying to change the fluid, let it run for a few days, and then change the filter or just do it all at once. I had planned to change the filter.

I have a 2000 suburban. I have never changed the AT fluid. I have heard over the years that if you wait too long to change it you may as well not change it as when you do, the new fluid will cause problems with the seals. I have no idea whether there is any truth to it or not. Maybe some of you...

umm.... ya

I have a 2000 suburban with 170K that, as far as I know, has never had the Transmission fluid changed. I've heard many times stories where people in my shoes change their transmission fluid and then the tranny goes south. Anyone else heard this or confirm it? Should I change the fluid or leave...
