I have hauled my wheelin' rig several times a on a 2k# flatbed around town and it was great, truck has plenty of power and the new brake controller works great. But the other day I haul my toy (samurai..) up into the mountains to play and have to use my buddy's dump trailer to haul it. Trailer is 4k and the sami is under 3k....

As soon as we start up the steep twisty stuff my trans temp goes through the roof...I pulled over and hung out 3 times to gain about 3k feet of elevation.

Is this normal for our trucks or should I have it checked out? Are better tranny coolers avaliable? I like this truck 10X as much as the powerstroke I traded in on it, but it would do that kind of towing without any drama....

Please advise...
