My 3/8" breaker bar isn't any longer than a normal ratchet handle. So I use a pipe...

Just be careful you don't knock the car down off the stands.

With any type, hot fluid drains out more thoroughly than cold fluid. The big thing with auto tranny is how you check the level using the dipstick. Most non-Honda cars want you to check the auto tranny fluid with the engine warmed up, & idling in Park. Hondas should be warmed up, shifted into Park, & turned OFF.
