Default 2001 Cherokee AISEN Trans (pan only) Fluid Capacity

Can anyone tell me how much ATF the AISEN auto trans pan holds? The crap trans rebuild shop bent the fill tube down when the previous owner had the trans rebuilt, can't get an accurate reading on the dipstick.
Thanks!

I swap out the fluid in my '00 every other year. Just cause I can cause of the drain plug.
I don't tap the ignition to push a little more out. Just drain it.
I put in between 4 and 4 1/2 quarts when I do this.

Ever try using something like the squirt and tube from a Windex bottle? Works good and don't drip.

Heading out. Later.

That is what the Dollar Store is for.
Throw away funnels, turkey basters, measuring cups, etc.
