Yep that for sure is the key to keep temps down on the Trans,on My Allison When climbing a hill I keep it in the 2200-2500 RPM range but sometimes it still gets a little hot for my taste in Hot weather so next trip I will be getting a larger finned Trans Pan as I read on the D-max Forum they do help(about 40 degrees cooler) and I'm sure it would help on the Ram Aisin trans as well,for 300 bucks a 40 degree Difference in trans temp is worth it to me

I have one on my transmission. I don't know which one and never checked the temperature before I put it on. I do keep a check on transmission temperature. It is finned and added 8 quarts of oil. It had to help. The thing that keeps transmission temperatures down is to run fast enough to keep it locked up. When I can't do that on a gravel road I put the truck in low four wheel drive.
