With the summer heat in full swing lately here in California I have been noticing my transmission temperatures go fairly high (monitored with Torque Pro, not towing). On level roads going about 30-40 mph I see 200 to 210 F (in D and 4) and over 220 to 240 F when going up mountain roads and good...
I sold my stock front shock assemblies ('09 w/o KDSS) to someone who has and '03. They claim that the shocks do not fit, though. Does that sound right?
