I asked a question about whether or not I could do it myself, and I know now that I'm going to pay a shop. I've got prices - $50 for a drain, fill, and filter replacement. $120 for a 100% flush. Do I need to spring for the full service at 35k miles?

Do the $50 job every 35k miles, and you'll be good to go. If the tranny fails, it'll be because of the affiliation with being a Chrysler tranny.

a drain and fill and filter change is the best thing to do
a flush will not change the filter - it stays in - they never drop the tranny pan and clean it or the magnet that is in there to catch particles.
having that done is better than a flush and fill

to get the most life out of the transmission i would change it now and wont have to worry about until say 90,000 miles...but yes it is a great investment to get the flush and filter....good luck

Check your owners manual for the recommended mileage that the trans flush should be done before spending the money yet.

no... replace filter and fluid that is lost from draining the pan...
