My Ford stamp is off to the side so my Dynotech tranny pan is therefore a 07'.
Thx!
If I didn't spend tons of money on hockey goalie items for my son today I would be placing the order right now. No rush.
Always had a hard time finding a good goalie where I coached. They seemed
to always stick the kid that could not skate in goal. When ever I worked with
Mites or squirts they all had to skate.
How long has he been playing?
If my back was not the way it is I think I would be coaching again.

First 2 years he was a skater & then next 3 goalie only. This year he moves up to Bantams. Definitely a lot bigger boys this year & harder shots. Fall try out camp starts Tuesday night.
I did find out one thing when I dropped the pan..... I never could look at the dipstick and REALLY tell what it told me as it was only viewable when NOT running. When I I installed the new filter, I saw that the bottom of the dipstick was rubbing on other parts of the tranny inside. While running, the stick always had so much fluid on it I couldn't read it 'cause it was all wet! EVEN IF LOW!
As I couldn't figure out what to do about it, I will continue to read it after it sits for a while and read it while NOT running and in PARK. I figure as long as I can see it on the bottom of the stick, I'm OK. I think I remember if reading it while the engine is OFF... if the fluid is at the lower section of the cross-hatch, it is OK. Comments????
Checking it NOT running in PARK and after sitting for a while, it will actually read higher than it actually is when running. That's why it's specified to check running in Park. When engine is running the transmission pump is pumping fluid through the coolers, passages, lines, and torque converter. When you shut the engine off, a lot of that fluid drains back to the pan, raising the fluid level.
When in the lower section, the stick indicates that level is good cold.
USN retired... What was your rate Bud?
Subscribing , thank you bud for serving , with the 08 pan being deeper , does the dip stick hit in the same place ? Or picking up a longer stick needed , I think our dip sticks reach the rear axle as it is

I think you will only need a longer one if you want to check the level on
the truck behind you.
But really the level in the trans does not really change just the capacity
increases a bit. The pickup being under fluid at all times is what counts.
Don't want to be sucking air into the fluid path.
Wow 13 pages on changing the trans filter, really good info on here though.
One thing I did not see is how the trans gets so hot. Sitting in stop and go traffic creates a lot of heat in the trans. I saw 185. crawling in traffic for about 45min . I just kept thinking if I was pulling heavy load what the temps would be. Yes the fan started to roar.
Also not mentioned is how similar our trans is to the 08 trans that was designed with this filter. I bet its real close.
Anyway I'm sold, it will be the next mod for my truck.

I wouldn't be at all worried about 185. I'm sure Mark will correct me, but from what I recall you really don't need to start sweating until 220-230. 230F is when the stock tranny guage starts moving.
The 6.0 has a great tranny cooling system so we all get spoiled with 160F tranny temps unloaded. Most vehicles runs 180-200F.
Towing my tranny temp basically follows coolant temp. During the summer my coolant is 205-210 towing and my tranny temp is usually 180-185. Pulling hills with coolant in the 215-220 range the tranny gets up into the 190s and occasionally breaks 200. Once the coolant drops the tranny always follows. Towing during the winter my coolant stays in the 195-200 range and the tranny drops down into the 170-175 range.
Unloaded is typically 160-165, unless I get in stop/go in which case it goes up.
1-year old stock radiator with stock water-oil cooler and, and stock air-oil cooler.
I did a no load trip to Arizona a month ago Trans temp from the scan gauge was 174 for the most part it never really changed driving, only cold start and when EOT/ ECT was at 190s then the Trans temp moved to 160s, I'm hoping the numbers here are at normal values.lets see what y'all are getting , this is from the Stock pan.
I actually saw almost 180 in the heat of the summer on the way home from work the other day but usually normal driving and pulling the boat in fall, spring, and winter it stays in the 160's.
