Trans heat killing ur trans?

Hey, As I said when I joined I would pass on any helpfull info I picked up.
Well here`s a big one, As per Jeep Magazine The specified Operating temp of the XJ AW4 trans is between 125 and 176 degrees. Ok so?
Without an Auxillary Trans fan cooler they found thier jeep running at 160 degrees up to 260 degrees!!! as stated heat is the killer of auto trannys.
At about 240 Degrees important additives cook off so add weight, Lift kits, bigger than stock wheels + skid plates that block air flow and think how it was designed for stock driving:jester::roflmao:

Helps to use low range when wheeling. IMPORTANT( do not block rad air flow with trans cooler find another spot)

I think Jeep Magazine is invaluable.
