Rubber plug in transmission pan
So I went to a junk yard 2 weeks ago to find a truck pan. I got one but noticed it had a rubber plug in it. So I went back today and noticed every single one had a rubber plug in it. The only one that didn't was a shallow pan. I wanted to use the truck pan in hopes I would benefit from the extra fluid it holds.
my question is, would you use a trans pan with a rubber plug? I really want to try the truck pan but i don't wasn't more headaches in the process.

No factory 4L60E pan had a rubber plug from the factory......
'98-'03 deep pans had a steel drain plug with a rubber gasket under the head.
Starting in '04 the drain plug was eliminated.
In '05, Gm put a "dip stick" stop in the pan & eliminated the valve body mounted stop.
If you don't care about the drain plug, GM 24240207 is super cheap at around $12.
