i hav 96 350 psd, the trans is starting to give me a problem i think i need a rebuild i was towing 6000 pds plus 2000 pds of salt bags in the bed and the trans started to go to 230 degrees and started to act up so i let the trans cool down and it strated to act normal what should do to fix this problem it has factory trans cooler.

 

have you changed the filter?

 

Factory trans coolers are too small. I have a 96 and it came with one about as big as a post card. Get a larger one with larger lines if you can. Also you can put in synthetic fluid. Mine runs a little cooler with it.

 

no i haven't yet im nerves to because i bought it about 3 weeks ago and it has 200k on it but thrans fluid looks new

 

try changing the filter its the cheapest possible fix and the easiest place to start

 

thats what i was thinking of doing, plus i just bought a bigger trans cooler i was looking at the stock one is only two core. the one i just picked up has nine core

 

sounds good
