Ended up working with a friend at my local NAPA service center. Unfortunately the cooler could not be removed due to interference with the cross brace, but they were able to get it out far enough to drain the fluid and then refill at the fill plug. I have 56K mostly gentle miles on my ST. The oil was captured in a container for inspection and they noted it came out looking pretty good with a small amount of metal filings. Total charge $152. Thanks to all for your input!

Thanks CTEdge!
Going to get with a friend that has a lift and determine the best course of action to remove the cooler. My preference will be to replace with the cooler plug cover, since it has a magnet to help catch the metal shavings and should make future drain much easier. Hope to get this figured out over the next couple weeks and will report back.

Fingernip - Yes the picture is from a U.S. Edge.
CTEdgeSt - Perfect. Thank you for the picture of the cooler at Rockauto and the other post detailing your drain and fill!
Looks like I just need to purchase the purchase the cooler plug kit (K2GZ-7A010-M), remove the cooler, let her drain and then replace with the cooler plug kit.
Super write-up and pics on your post. Thanks for sharing!
