Default Changing Dipstick Tube
Changing dipstick tube. Has anyone done this with the transmission still in the car? Is it possible to get to the bolt on the back of the head and snake the tube out with the tranny installed?

I don't think it's gonna happen. I have tried to get to that bolt and couldn't find a way to do it.

I'd be interested to knwo if anyone has pulled that off myself.

I don't think so either. I'm asking for someone else that has a leaking tube after a converter install. I told him I thought the tranny would have to come back out.

Torque convertor bolts? Size? Thread pitch?
