Generally 60 - 100 degrees over ambient depending on how heavy you are towing/hauling.

Where are you measuring the temp at? The 60 - 100 is from the test port on the driverside. What type of tranny are you using?

After reading posts such as these is when I installed a second cooler on my 99 PSD! Right now she has 148k on her and "knock on wood" she will hold up! I pull a 28 ft fiver and so far my temps even in Fl have been low! Have not seen close to 200 deg!!

a tranny shop has done all the rebuilding. Sounds like that could be a bad thing?

They may not be replacing some of the hard parts,

You are not to far from BTS and it will be the last tranny you have to buy.

If you were really sick and went to the doctor and you weren't cured! You would get a second opinion right! You might want to help your truck and do the same!! After all he is your best friend right?
