Ya, that damn trans temp light!

If I were you, you better get the transmission fluid professionally flushed.
Or you run the risk of frying the ****** if you leave the fluid too long and you
over heat the ****** one or two more times.
You might also want to consider installing a new radiator so you can plumb in
the in rad transmission cooler (Along with the stand alone ****** cooler if you
do allot of off roading!)
The stand alone transmission cooler is not in the most optimal position way
down there at the bottom of the radiator, being obstructed by the vehicles
cross member and not in the direct air flow.
Trust me, it's less expensive now to do some upgrades to the cooling system
(Again, especially if you are an avid off roader) and consider adding the
heavy duty clutch/viscus fan in addition to the electric fan.
Sure, you will need the H/D rad shroud as well, but it is less costly than a rebuilt
transmission and the installation labour if you don't do the work yourself.




On a side note, I see in your signature line that you possibly want a trash lock rear diff?
Save your money and buy a better unit!

I'm gonna have to agree with this. I lit up the light 2-3 times in winter doing donuts in unplowed parking lots. Where am I now? Getting a new transmisison this week. (A used one with 39k miles on it. Simply incredible.) Just be careful out there...
