Transmission problem

How do I drain some of the transmission fluid if I have too much. The dip stick is reading way too high.

Check the trans pan. Some actually had a drain plug. If it doesn't, you have two choices. You can get a pump of some sort and place a long hose on it, place it in the dipstick tube and suck some out, or you can loosten the trans pan and allow some to drain slowly from there.
