I replaced factory transmission with factory transmission by dealer about two years ago. I was wanting to give this transmission the best chance to last the life of the truck. I was wanting to know how to service the transmission and filter. Can you help?

Below is the process from the manual on how to check the fluid and to drop the pan and where the filter is.
