Good write up. one recommendation for point #8 is that you should make sure that before plugging the fill hole, any excess overflow completely drains out. The fluid level should be exactly level with the bottom of the fill.

Also, since you used jack stands on the rear, not sure how level your car was. One way to avoid over/underfilling is to take measure the oil drained out and put the same amount back in. Take into consideration that about 0.1 quart may have stuck to the catch container.
