Well, we made the return trip yesterday and even though we initially hit traffic for about the first hour and the tranny temp only got up to about 210. However, once we started moving and over the next hour of the trip the tranny temp stayed between 195 and 200 the whole way even on hills. I'm guessing the tranny didn't have enough time to get back to normal on the prior trip.
Anyways, I will be checking the space on the tranny cooler and probably install an electric fan. I will also be having the Banks kit and Transcommand installed next week, so that should help with the heat.
I did use the overdrive button on the hills to drop the tranny to 3rd for a little more pulling power.
Thanks again for all the suggestions.
