Tranny dipstick

I bought all of the stuff to change the tranny fluid and filter. Most of the information on this forum is accurate but a few things were left out and I have 2 questions.

Be sure to buy two of the seals for the cooling hoses as you will probably need to loosen or remove the one on the driver side attached to the bell housing. Be sure to get both old seals off the banjo bolt to avoid a leak.

On the passenger side there is a cover over the electrical connection to the tranny and you should remove it before undoing the tranny pan bolts.

Two questions:

What is the torque for the pan bolts?

My dipstick would not go down the all the way. It seems to bottom out with about a foot to go. The reading seems just fine however. Is this normal?

Thanks.
