Stick shift trans do not have dip sticks and we crawl under the car to check the fluid in those trans. But if ez enuf i would install a dip stick too.

In some cases where leakage is a problem but trans operates good then the dip stick is very convenient. Just because something is a leaker doesn't mean it should be rebuilt. I've had leakers run 50K ++ miles. Rebuild a trans because of a leak??? Not prudent.
