Hi...are there any crush washers for the fill and drain plugs that need to be replaced when doing the manual trans fluid change?

Thanks.
Ed.

I've never seen any washers on my '97. I'm draining out through the neutral pos switch and filling in the regular hole.

My 6th Gen Max had a flat washer on both. The instructions I was following said to replace them, but the ones on the car looked exactly like the new one I bought, so I reused the old ones.
