rickles04 03-09-2004, 12:46 PM HAS ANYBODY EVER OVERHEATED THE ALLY? I HAVE A WARN TRANSFORMER GRILL GUARD AND WINCH AND MINE IS RUNNING 195 PULLING NOTHING WITH AN OUTSIDE TEMP OF 60.... I HATE TO SEE WHAT ITS GONNA BE THIS SUMMER WHEN ITS HOT IF I PULL ANYTHING... duramaxdiesel 03-09-2004, 12:57 PM Wow. When I'm on the highway with my plow and 1000Lbs in the back, I don't even come close to that. Could it be that the winch is blocking that much air flow? I'm planning a Ranch Hand and winch when funds allow. Hope I don't run into any problems. Mackin 03-09-2004, 01:03 PM I've seen 250+ degrees a couple times but that's anouther story in itself ... Not your ordinary situation .... So ya I've seen one overheat ... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif But in your case 195 is well within the operating temp ... At 60 degrees idling in traffic stop and go it isn't uncomman for the tranny temp to aproach engine coolant temps .... If your winch is blocking air traval then I guess you will have to address that ... Mac rickles04 03-09-2004, 01:10 PM OK MACK FILL ME IN ,,,,,HOW DID YOU SEE THEM KINDA TEMPS? Blue Max 03-09-2004, 01:50 PM My guess would be on a dyno. You need to have someone stand in front of your truck and blow in the radiator.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif Mackin 03-09-2004, 03:56 PM No Torque converter lock up to a partial and slipping Torque Converter ... It WILL get HOT quick,I mean quick @ 500 RWHP .... On the street and that was SUMP temp with aux gauge ... Tiss all better ,for awhile now ....
