It's a matter of rotating the torque converter until the drain plug is visible at the bottom window. There are two ways of rotating the torque converter. One is to use a socket on the crank dampner mounting bolt and rotating the engine clockwise. The other is to walk it around using a screwdriver on the flywheel teeth. The drain bolt is a 5mm allen head.
