I have pulled the tranny out of a truck and I need to flush the lines before installing the new tranny. What is the best way to do this without the tranny actually in the truck???? Of course, I do no have a tranny flush system I am doing this in my garage with limited tools.

Go to harbor frieght, buy a drill motor driven hand pump for a few bucks, get a few quarts of fresh tranny fluid in a bucket, hook up the pump with some flexible lines and pump the fluid out of the bucket through the system and back into the bucket for a little while.
