I dont see an aftermarket cooler listed and its a 7.3 Ryan

If the thing started getting hot overnight it sounds like a problem more the the cool, many being pluged but not being too small. Seen on of these trucks like a moth ago same problem and the kept driveing and fried the tranny when the only problem if first place was the tc.

Well I caAlled the tranny guy today he said he is almost sure it isnt the TC due to the codes it threw an the way it still runs good but did tell me to replace the check valve on the back of the tranny I tried calling the dealer toget a price but they dont know what that part is that im talking of can anyone help out?

[strokinnsmokin]

so I replaced this on sat an still running hot any other ideas? also w/ the old fluid would that have something to do w/ it running hot still?

I would drop the pan and change your fluid and transmission filter. Too hot of temps could break down the oil and cause it not to dissipate heat as well.

[strokinnsmokin]

Changed the filter/fluid an installed a 6.0L trans cooler an still running 190-210ish any other ideas on whats goin on?

pull the pan and pull the valve body's and check that all of your valves are moving freely, if they are sticky and one completely sticks then you will end up with one burnt transmision. best to check now to prevent a whole trans. rebuild. while you are in there it wouldnt hurt to throw in a shift kit.

I am also feeling the same thing.

I dont knew if i would trust that tranny shop that you are working with that told you its not the tc. but if you call a good tranny shop they will tell you that it could very well be the tc. you should try to find a good tranny shop to test it for you.
