If you are laying under the car looking up....there is a small "window" where the transmission and engine meet, this is where the torque converter drain bolt is accessed. No need to jack up the rear. Just the front. All you need to do is crank the engine over until the allen head drain bolt becomes visible in this "window". Sometimes you will get lucky and it will be right there ready to be removed with no need to turn the engine over.

The torque converter fills itself with transmission fluid. You fill just the same in the trans fill hole near the firewall. You should drain the entire transmission too, since the fluid between the two is constantly mixed.
