Sure seems like a easy way to do it to me. Be sure to pull the side plug so you get some idea of the proper 'full' as the lube begins to leak out.

Remove the side plug, fill from the top and go real slow on the last little bit so you don't overfill it, and if you do overfill let it sit with the plug out so it dribbles out to the right level.

Merry Christmas !!

I can't imagine that trans holding 1 1/2 GALLONS of lube!
