I Have a 2001 4 Door Ford Explorer XLT 51,000 miles I just bought the truck, the transmission fluid seems to smell ok but the red color is fading away and becoming light brown/red color I have the 5R55E Automatic Transmission and I thought I needed a pump to get all the fluid out of the lines because I also want to flush the coolant system, if I brought it to a mechanic how much do you think they will charge me if I supplied them with the parts?

Just pay the dealer or a garage specializing in trans service it's worth the money spent. Most garages won't use customer supplied parts because they loose retail markup on them.
