I have a 98 Chevy 3500 dually to pull my gooseneck trailer. This afternoon I drove an hour to pick up my Oliver 880. Was doing fine until I got into Silvis, Ill. and had to climb a couple moderate hills, the temp guage went up to 300° real quick. We pulled into the Walmart parking lots and set for about 10 minutes with the motor running in park.It got down to 220° and stayed there for a few minutes, so I took off again. As long as it was flat, it stayed in the 220-240° range, Had to pull a couple good hills in Milan, Ill. and she went up to 300+° till we got on the flat. I pulled over again and set a few minutes and it went back down to 220°. It was fairly flat the rest of the way home, and it ran in the 220-240° range. It was 90° this afternoon, The hottest day I have pulled the trailer with it. Did I damage the transmission? I changed transmission filter and oil about a year ago and haven't driven it very many miles since. I think I should change the trans fluid. I'm not sure how big the oil cooler is, but I think I need to try to fit a larger one in front of the radiator and behind the grill. It's a 454 gas, not sure which tranny is in it. It has 3 speeds and overdrive, no tow haul mode. What say ye????

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
