I am talking of several tow vehicles and adding a cooler to all including the f350. It had one but was to small. You want the cooler in front of everything else to get best performance. My f350 even has a electric fan with switch to turn on and force air thru it. It is helpful at lower than highway speeds and highway speeds on mt. passes in hot summer temps.
I ever had tranny temp gauges until this F350. The charts I have read said 220 or higher starts to burn up the fluid and ruin the transmission. Maybe some can run higher now days. If it does start to over heat, stop driving the vehicle and idle at roadside, it should cool down. Shutting down will increase the temp.
