ive looked over some of the old posts and just havent found what i am looking for. i had my 96 xj/auto out last night in the mud and i believe i may have gotten it too hot. i was repeatedly running hill climbs and throwing mud without any issues. when i became stuck in the mud, my temp quickly rose into almost the red (240 degrees?). it was only about 50 degrees outside so i was surprised. i stopped the vehicle, turned the ac on to make sure the elec fan stayed on, and turned the heat to "max" to cool it down.eventually it cooled down-but, i am hearing a noise or squeal (seems internal to trans/or transfer case). the noise isnt loud or screeaching-but i can hear it. recently, i have replaced all hoses , thermostat, and flushed the coolant. i believe that i have "burped" all of the air properly. it runs about 200 degrees normally on the highway at all speeds. did i smoke the trans? also, ive just changed all fluids, filters, etc.
