Good afternoon fellas!

Training out here in Oshkosh, WI. No snow out here at all! Not looking forward to the drive home if it snows. Snowed on Tuesday and the drive here sucked!

That sucks on the transmission! Did the Explorer pull the trailer home?

We weren't sure if the trans had one more go in her or not. I guess not as well. She was up to 240* for a moment.

Yeah that is getting a little warm especially with not a real big load and cold temps. Wonder why it went out again....tuning issue or ? These trans are not known for having too many issues like the 4r100 can have.

It was just a used trans he put in, not rebuilt. So no warranty.
