Are you guys changing fluid by jacking up and jack standing one side of the car and just pulling drain and fill plugs- pumping fluid in til it dribbles out fill hole?

The car needs to be level, when you drain the fluid if you want you could tilt the left side of the car up a bit and let it drain. It drains faster if you also remove the fill plug when draining.

When you fill the trans, yes fill it till it starts to dribble out the fill hole. With TP if you drain out the cooler you fill till it dribbles run the car and check it again. Chances are you will need a slight top up since some fluid will be in the cooler.

I didn't bother with that I just drained it and filled it and I still have to get my car out of winter storage. Planning on tomorrow if the weather is good.

Yeah, that's what jackstands are for or use a Quickjack. My Shelby was stored up on the QJ all winter.
