Trust me, you guys are debating the same questions I battled with before I spent
$600. for the two.
My reasoning was if I'm able to have a larger capacity of oil plus the Cover made of Aluminum, it would dissipate the heat better like the older Super Duty's had.
Kind of like having a Larger Radiator, Larger Mass, More capacity, all equals better Cooling.
But, If I really don't need them ..

from a mechanics standpoint the mag hytech rear diff with the drain plug and dipstick make checking diff lube and checking the level really easy and mess free.
I also went with the trans pan just because I like the idea of more fluid along with a trans temp sensor port in the pan.
you already bought them so install them and forget about them. sounds like a fun trip!

Why would you want to read the temperature in the pan? That's going to be the coldest temperature you can find inside the transmission. There is a port just above the pan, on the driver's side of the trans that will give a MUCH more accurate reading of the actual temperature inside the transmission.

Living in Florida I don't have elevation to put the Transmission under to much of a load.
My Transmission Temperature runs around 200* in daily driving, but the Temperature does began to run warmer (not much) but it does while Towing are 8-9000 lb Travel Trailer around here.
For any of you that live, or tow in areas we'll encounter in our travels, what can I expect
my Transmission Temps run ? By the way, I've cancelled my order on the
Transmission Pan . That saved me $350.

Another reason to not want this pan.
