They 2019/2020 truck owners are in the same boat... They won't say why it won't work.

Nope

I'm with @Ritchie_Rich , 300-350 a day is plenty... also I'm only going 60. I suppose if you are still working that would be a consideration... otherwise why hurry? Maybe plan trips closer to home so you're not driving so much?

Not sure what a relearn will get you... you're overdue for a fluid replacement. IMO, I'd do that first... best of luck.

ZF recommends filter/fluid change ever 80-120K kilometers (50-75K -ish miles) I'd start by getting that done first... I just did mine. As I'm out of warranty, I'm just going with AMSoil Signature Series Fuel-Efficient Synthetic ATF. No need to level the transmission case per the email I...

That requires doing actual math... hard pass...lol

So this first time I replaced the pan and added close to 6 quarts, from what I can find the entire thing holds 9 qts(?). Based on this calculator (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FEXyhLL3ph-r6cciIkYLKZdWCKwS7geKDsy05t_IWFk/edit?gid=2#gid=2) I've replaced 66.67% of the fluid leaving 3...

Welp, there's the answer. I did provide them with year/make/model and what little transmission info there was on the build sheet (8-Spd Auto 8HP75-LCV) This is certainly going to make life easier.

Likely useful for some tasks!!!

So, near as I can tell the green page is from MOPAR and the ZF service info sheet states "vehicle is in a horizontal position. I found a contact email for technical questions on the ZF website and asked which is correct... because putting it level on jack stands is much easier than trying to...

100% understand... I've seen the videos where they are at a service center of some type and they just have it on a lift so either they are doing it wrong or it doesn't matter (despite the instructions). Honestly I'd rather just jack up the rear far enough to get the tires off the ground to go...

Transmission is supposed to be level... #1 on the list.

Great so long as you don't have a 2019/20 truck...yeah, I'm a little salty about it...

Changed the transmission fluid @ 72K miles. Minimal towing of the TT so I was ok with waiting this long. Picked up a MOPAR filter as it came with new hardware (also had 4 magnets) and I couldn't really find a solid/consistent review on the Dorman (which apparently can have only 2 magents)...
