Id start Junk yard shopping for wrecked 4x4's with the axle parts. The best transmission Ive found to replace the 700r4 is out of the V6 astro vans,, 4.3L. Mite save you some $$! it sounds like you have a restriction in the valve body, its not plugged or anything,, when I had my tranny built, they opened up an oil port somewhere to increase fluid flow, and that helped the heat. When you work the tranny, and it cant flow the fluid fast enough, it will keep the heat, and it will build and build. Over pressure is a common problem for heat in these,,, No, full torque converter lock up is in OD,, the rest is half-3/4 lock up. that kit I told you about for the overdrive helps this,, the torque converters are lite duty, and gets the front pump hot, pops the seal, and your pump will eventually go out. Yeah,, I stopped travling to pulls over 300 miles away too,,, LOL,, Ive switched to a F-350 Diesil with a 5 speed. yeah its slower,, but,, it gits er done!! Id say,, your looking at 1500-2500 for all the work done,, but,, you have one heck of a truck when your done! Chad
