[QUOTE="creepycrawly, post: 711177, member: 9808"] The short is yes, add a cooler. If you google trans temp charts, you will see the guidelines for longevity at various temperatures. The question though then becomes where is the temperature sensor located. The other big issue though is that the 42RLE is notoriously bad about short lifespan when ran hot. It also has a really tall overdrive. Depending on what gears you have, the 2 best things you can do for it are add a cooler and turn the overdrive off unless you are on the highway. My 05 LJ has 4.56’s and I absolutely wish they were 4.88’s or 5.13’s with that stupid auto even on the 35’s. [/QUOTE]
