Mine has a drain plug, I think when I remove my bolts it's all gonna be mostly out by then. It's automatic transmission similar to this transmission "I believe"

If it has a plug obviously use that first but there will probably be a significant amount left in the pan afterwards. Once most of the fluid has drained from the drain hole use the procedure I outlined but start with the side closest to the open drain hole. Also make sure to use a small cup/dish/bowl etc to hold your bolts so you don't loose them, you local auto parts store should have some magnetic trays that are ready good at this. These are what I use as a professional mechanic.

That makes sense, cuz the bolts are around it. Makes sense totally. Thanks man I bookmarked your tips 😄🤗

Oh shit, you're a pro mechanic. Opinion on partial 50K drain and fill method....instead of flush and agitate the debris before full on flush later at higher mileage..

Shouldn't hurt anything, but dain and fill will only cover a fraction of the fluid in the system. The vast overwhelming majority of your fluid sits in the torque converter which means it cannot be changed unless the car is running which mean you need a fancy machine to properly exchange all of it so your still gonna have to do a full trans flush by 70k
