Hey all, I’ve got a 2024 F150 and planning on doing its first transmission fluid drain and fill. Naturally, it doesn’t have a drain plug on the pan so I’m looking into aftermarket pans that have a drain plug. I like the idea of a deeper pan, but my concern is if the trans fluid pickup / filter would no longer be submerged / no longer in the optimal position. Let me know what you guys think, thanks!

I've heard good things about the PPE pan, it's pricey and out of stock currently though...https://ppepower.com/products/cast-aluminum-deep-10r80-transmission-pan-heavy-duty-ford-f-150-bronco-2017-2024
I believe Nate from NextGen recommended PPE in one of our videos. You can call NextGen to see what they recommend, they deal with so many valve bodies and rebuilds they may have some recommendations too.
In the Facebook groups I've seen people install the PPE pans with good luck, but the taller pan may have clearance issues with the exhaust....though not certain which models or if they route the exhaust the same on all engine variants.
