Default Anyone use SeaFoam Trans cleaner?

When I went to the store to get some SeaFoam to do a top clean I saw SeaFoam Transmission cleaner. Says to use it before you change the fliud and filter. I'm getting ready to change my trans filter and wondered if using this first is a good idea. Anyone ever use it?

Have 50k on the truck and this is the first filter change.

I have used it before, I didn't really notice any help from it. I had it in for about 15k miles before I changed my fluid and filter and my fluid was starting to turn brown so I'm guessing it didn't really do anything. I am a big fan of Sea Foam but I would say not to bother with their Trans Tune.

Thanks I just wondered if it helped any. My fluid looks good I'm just doing normal trans maintenance.

I have heard good things about the AAMCO additive, you may want to try that out. I personally wouldn't use the Sea Foam stuff in my tranny again though.
