Ever did transmission fluid drain/fill without jacking up car?

I want to try this 3x drain/fill transmission fluid exchange. Wanting to see if this is doable without jacking up the car.

Has anyone tried to do this without jacking up the car?....I got 08 coupe.

I've been able to do an oil change on my 09 v6 sedan without jacking it. I've been meaning to flush my ATF for a while, but just been lazy about it. I believe that if I (a 220lb, 6ft kid) can do an oil change without jacking it up, I'm sure you can too, but with the ATF.

I think the ATF drain bolt is located near the the oil drain pan, so wouldn't be too bad. Let me know if you give it a shot!

you prob need some room to remove the plastic cover that's over the ATF drain plug. Some pple (like me) end up cutting a hole through the plastic so you don't have to remove the cover at all.
