The tranny got attached to the torque tube out of the car. Much easier to get that foul boot back over the rear coupler. And to get the shifter lever back in. And to get to the upper two bolts on the torque tube. And to attached the shaft coupler. And to fill the transmission.

I've done a bunch of different things to fill them when in the car and this was far and away the easiest. Took the top off the tranny and poured in the four quarts. I'm using Mobil1 75w90 GL5 in the gearbox for now. Much cheaper than the boutique oils and I can always swap later it out if the shifting isn't good.
