Hey folks,
The other day helping out changing bearings in a sawmill ?????????. I had to back up the truck thru some mud to unpack tools. 12 hours later go to leave let truck warm up a few minutes, having left in 4x4 mode go to advance and it sounds like the truck is forcing big time. I stop giving it fuel don't want to break anything or spin out in the mud (althought that would be fun)doubt it would happen anyway. Is it just me or does this torqshift tranny not like the cold ,damp weather. It always seems a bit slow to get going , and it's starting to get cool up here in Quebec Canada. For we can cold weather up
here, but winters are often DAMP & cold! ( not a spelling mistake). I am just worried if we get a good dump of snow , and it's 12 or 20 below Celsuis,and the truck has sat overnight , yes plugged in, is this potbelly of gears going to move me out:dunno
For once it has rolled along a bit,it is fine :thanks
Jim

i have an 03 6.0 in alaska. In the winters i just let the tranny warm up before i drive and it runs fine. Maybe just change fluid and filter will smooth things out for you.
