Transmission flush tips..Repost

From the 80's forum. Thought I may get some opinions here too:
=============================================

Planning a transmission flush on my '90 HDJ81. Got everything ready and read almost all threads talking about the topic including this one with pics:
http://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-te...e-writeup.html

I am still having some trouble finding the transmission line to disconnect. I understand from the picture it is on the LH side of the vehicle. Is that right? Roughly, how far down the radiator it is located? The picture in the thread mentioned above seem to have an additional transmission cooler (this is where the hose is connected I guess) while mine is stock and does not have one (uses part of the radiator as a transmission cooler)
Also, I read that the right hose size should be 3/4" ID, does this sound right? 3/4" is really BIG!!

I am also planning on using this before flushing, any comments or previous experience with this product?
Sea Foam--Trans Tune

Cheers,
Ahmed

I also was wondering about SEA FOAM TRANS TUNE. Did you end up using it. What was the result?

if you have factory or aftermarket tranny cooler on front ..

mine is aftermaket ..



or ( thought it's better ) here you can see the lines ( hard ones ) out to and from the cooler .. those are over the front DS

remove the front DS for better clearance and space ..



Disconected it's the output hard line ..
