Where can I buy a transmission pan for H3 with a -''drain plug already in it''?

I don't believe there is an off the shelf solution for the H3/H3T. Derale makes one for the 4L60E transmission, but it's too deep of a pan to fit the H3/H3T.

You should be changing the filter when replacing the fluid anyway, so you need to still pull the pan for that. It's not terribly hard to not make a complete mess when dropping the pan, just be sure to use a large enough drain pan. You can even get one of the black plastic mixing tubs from Lowes in the concrete area to use that will be plenty big enough, and they're pretty inexpensive too.

Get this drain plug and install it near your trans magnet. It's the front left corner if I recall correctly.

And here's the trans filter you probably need:

Here's what I've done in the past on a few of my vehicles. It works best when you have to change tranny fluid anyway:

1) Get a 1/2" fine-thread nut and short bolt from the hardware store. A hardware store should have low-profile nuts 1/2 the thickness of regular nuts (my choice).
2) Drill a hole on the side of the drain pan in an appropriate area (where there's clearance)
3) Braze the nut on the outside (or inside) of the pan.
4) Install the bolt with a thin plastic or fiber washer to seal. (optional - cut the bolt short so it doesn't protrude into the pan too far).

Less than $1 in parts, no leaks -- DONE!!

Spot on Jeepwalker! I have done several exactly as you recommend. For #4, I use an aircraft quality STATOSEAL.
