..or maybe it means having the vehicle sitting on a level concrete surface.

Just got back this evening with another 600 mile round trip back and forth over the mountain pass (Cascades) in one day. The transmission on the Explorer performed flawlessly...I was pleased.

Hope figured out the level issue on the 2002 tranny. Best guess is if the ground is level then this is what to check the fluid level at....

Are you on really that bad of unlevel ground? It shouldn't need to be on perfectly level ground just close. My 03 has the dipstickless tranny, don't really like that. Hope mine doesn't get that shudder.
