Transmission Flush Help

Today, I dropped my truck off at my local trusted repair shop to have my trans flushed. Well, they said they couldn't do it. They couldn't find a fitting to take apart to hook the machine in. They said they talked with the dealer and they said, you may need to replace something if you do this. (I stopped listening when they started telling me this crap).

So, I have a 2007 F150 5.4 4x4 with the tow package. Where does someone break into the line (without cutting the dam thing) and hook the flushing machine in?

My Ford service manual shows 4 connections between at the radiator and at the aux cooler. Plus 4 on a connector block in the lines between the trans and the radiator. And 2 at the trans itself.

I don't understand why they can't figure this out.

Anyone know and better yet, have pics of where you would hook in?

Thanks

Have you asked the dealer for a quote to do the job?

Nope. I hope not to go that route. I don't trust them.
