You don't need to remove the tranny, but I don't why you want to change it. If it doesn't leak, then its sealed an d not letting in moisture. The only problem where moisture can get in is the o-ring on top of the dip stick. If its torn, worn out, ore not there, then that needs to be replaced. BUT, to answer your previous question, no tranny doesn't need to com out, but its still hard none the less. You have to drop the rear cross member on the tranny, remove the brace on the passenger side of the transmission(2 bolts, one on the bell housing, through the brace, the other at the back of the transmission) Remove the brace, pull the tube out(you will have to angle the tranny and engine up). Then everything is reverse of removal. This will take a while to do, but I have done it beforre, and it works. I use this method to replace the seal at the bottom of the dipstick.
