2 part question

hello guys,

i dont frequent this part of thirdgen.org much as i dont have much done to the iroc in this aspect..but i do have 2 prolly dumb questions..

1.how do i add tranny fluid to my standard tranny? im assuming shes pretty empty cuz shes starting to grind and i havent even looked at it since i bought the car 5 years ago let alone put any fluid in it..and how much would i put in?

2.how much fluid does our real ends hold? and what is the correct fluid to use...40w 30 or whatever..

thanks

Theres two square plugs in the side of it, a fill and a drain, you use ATF for the trans.
