Yes as long as the 99 is the OLD body style.
The fluid level in a transmission will not change unless it leaks.
Yes. If you have developed trans trouble you waited to long.
The transfer case makes it 4x4 not the transmission. As long as the trannys are the same should work
You actually have to put it into the transmission fluid dipstick hole using a long funnel. I just did this tonight after speaking with my mechanic.
as long as the transmissions are the same yes but there may be a wiring difference as well as cv joint size difference To make this transmission work you would have to change all the electrical from the 2003 and put it into the 99 model year. This would be a very big job that most transmission shop will not touch
About 45 minutes
You should always change the seals. If it does not leak now, it might leak after you put it back together. Spent the LITTLE extra money now and save in the long run.
From what I heard and from my past experience. Sometimes it does hurt the transmission. What I mean is it depends on the transmission wear and tear. For example; I had a 1990 Nissan Pathfinder SE, Transmission started slipping a little, so I figure it would help. Well to make the long story short. I change transmission filter and fluid and I got 1 more year out of it.
About 6.5 qts. for a filter change, depends on how long you let it drain though. And about 17 for a dry transmission.
