Charles...I'm a ford man from way back...but riding in that 2012 3500 Duelly pulling my camper at 70 mph and only 1500 rpms about made me want get me a goat...

Good news...tranny is fine...the filter melted cause the tranny got real hot trying to keep up with the young goat... Cheesy I will be out $316.00 and my son and his fiance will bring it to the camp site on their way here...chit happens but moving forward...just thankful it all worked out...

Just traded my eleven goat for a thirteen Ford and I will tell you first hand that goat won't pull or get anywhere near the mileage of this new Ford. Never ever thought I would own one but so far I love it. I am a Dodge man but this last one really put a bad taste in my mouth. Hope your repair works for you, I think transmissions these days have gold in them somewhere.

Rueben, I have a 99 Powerstroke and bout 6 or 8 yrs ago it started leakin tranny fluid when I pulled a heavy load on a hot day. I took it in to get the tranny seal changed and found it had a cracked weld around the torque converter hub. Had to put a new one in. Good luck with it.

Thanks...right now the fix was 316 dollars...but will find out when I get back on I10 on the way back home...I googled transmission boil over and got lots of info on the 99 powerstroke...not enough tranny cooling for heavy loads...as long as I stay below 65 mph my 99 is ok with the heavy loads...
