Servicing tranny questions

I am getting th filter today as well as some additive. I want to change the fluid in the tranny, and make sure everything is good inside. I know there is no drain plug on this tranny, so how do I get the fluid out? Do I simply crack one side, and let it pour out into a catch can? If so, which side is the best one ot do this with? Would I be best off by cracking the front drivers side with the little hump in it?

Once I get the pan off ,and make sure everything is good inside, then I put the pan back on. New gasket is my assumption... Do I use any sealant? What is the ftlb's that I torque the thing down to?

I am not draining the TC, so how mnay quarts of fluid should I put in the truck? What kind of fluid should I throw in there?
