Trans

Hey guys, I found this site and think its great. I been looking for a site that has info like this one.

I know its kinda blunt and seen a few topics a couple of pages back, but my question is what is the deal with the automatic trans for the 7.3 trucks?

I bought my truck with 15k miles on it. It's a 01 f-250 with a 4 inch lift and a/t tires. I was coming back from a trip and my trans goes out. I have a hypertech programmer installed, also a k&n, and 4 inch exhaust w/downpipe.

I have been looking at aftermarket transmisions but don't want to pay the money. Is temp a problem or maybe the oil? Any help and/or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks again,
Jim
