If it's an automatic, I suggest you put a trans cooler on it and maybe a trans temp guage.

The biggest that will fit. This is one thing where too much is just enough

We have a 92 which we put a plow on,

Caution, the A4ld is a weak transmission, keep it cool, and you might get away with it, if you intend to push a lot of snow, consider another pusher..

If you are just plowing your driveway I wouldnt worry about any problems with the tranny, just go slow and keep it in 4wheel low, and you will be fine. I also have a 92 and man they are great trucks arent they, just one thing I do not like, the power steering in them. Well good luck with your plowing.

The 92's have auto hubs which lock and unlock everytime you change directions, service them before the cold weather, they freeze up in cold weather if you have them loaded with grease. Clean out all the old grease and just put a tablespoon of gear oil in them.

We changed ours out to manual hubs to eliminate this problem.

This will be the 6th winter with the plow on it and it has 435k on the clock.
