Transmission overheating

Yep

Will you have a temp gauge sensor in the pan? Always good to know what the operating temp is so you don’t transgress ~209*F.

10-4 after this experience I am definitely adding a temp gauge

Because it has had a 4in lift with 33's for 15 yrs.

Just means you've been running it hot for 15 years.
Mine, with 33s and 4.10s, only lasted 14years (125k).
Rebuilt trans, added cooler and gauge, and oh yeah, regeared.

Did this ever get a fix? I am having a very similar problem with mine!
