My gears have been shifting a little hard so I thought I would finally get around to changing my tranny fluid. I open the plug....and a drop comes out..ha I thought there was no tranny fluid in there then I realized that was the fill plug. So i found the drain at the bottom, but I cant get my airgun in there and I think I might have stripped it.

its a 24MM nut. use a standard 24MM 1/2 drive socket and remove it. never use air tools on oil plugs

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

Don't over torque it when you put the bolt back on. Chances are the shop or wherever you had it done last over torqued the **** out of it, happened to mine first time I changed my tranny fluid and made it a pain to get off (nearly stripped mine). I'm not 100% but iirc that particular drain bolt is about 50 ft/lbs.
