Transmission fluid type and fluid check - dipstick?

It does not have one. It has to be checked on level ground. See picture for instructions on how to do it.

Your vehicle is not equipped with an ATF dipstick. You will have two plugs facing downward on the larger transmission pan. The plug higher up on the pan is the fill/level check (stamped/recessed into the rear right corner of pan). ATF should just dribble from this plug on a hot, idling truck, in neutral on a level surface. The lower one is the drain. The one at the back of the pan in a recess is the filler. You need a hand pump or something similar to fill it to overflowing then top it off with the engine running. Make sure you shift through the gears a couple of times when topping off.

There are 2 drain holes in the pan, one is higher than the other. Remove the higher one, with the vehicle idling in park the fluid level should be to the top of the higher drain plug. If you suspecr fluid is low, pump a small amount into the higher hole, with a drain pan under it. Let flow out whatever amount wants to so that it is at the top of the drain

The dip stick is under the car (#4) but you check it the same way this guide will help you see how to check the fluid with a diagram of the dipstick location below.
