    Well, I'm doing a flush of my ATF fluid on my Tacoma but I'm having an issues removing the pan completely. I just cant get it out. The dip stick extension and my sway bar seems to be getting in the way. Does anyone know a trick on getting this stupid thing out. Want to put a knew gasket and screen/filter on before flush.

    Nevermind, figured out the problem. Can't have your truck jacked up or on jack stands, it changes the angle of the sway bar making it impossible to remove. Put my truck back on the ground and was then able to remove ATF pan. Just FYI if anyone else runs into this problem.
