Heres a link to changing the ATF in a 4R100. How much fluid you add back in depends on if you drained all the fluid in the system or just drained the fluid in the pan only. Your owners manual will give you some capacities also.

correct, only need to replace the amount you drained. After you add 5 quarts...start the truck and check the tranny fluid level on the dip stick and add the last little bit (checking after each add) until you have the correct level.
