[QUOTE="Mark Kovalsky, post: 1030970, member: 1654"] To see if you need to replace the torque converter look at the front face of the converter. This is the end facing the engine. If the surface shows heat, especially bluing, then it is slipping and needs to be replaced. With the poor cooling system that you have I'm not surprised by your temperatures. If this were my truck I'd lose the Derale cooler. Unless you have a MONSTER fan the cooler isn't doing much for you. You need a cooler that is in the airflow, not one tucked under the truck. The air under the truck is HOT. A cooler that is sucking in hot air isn't going to cool the trans very well. The large pan isn't helping you. I can't really say it's hurting you, but it does NOTHING to help cool the trans. Once the trans does get hot it will take a lot longer to cool because of all the extra fluid. The best transmission cooling system is from the front of the trans to the radiator cooler, then to a cooler from a 6.0L truck, then back to the rear of the trans. If you can fit this in your cooling problems will be over. [/QUOTE]
