Anyone know what the temp ranges are for the 8 speed transmission? I know the 8 speed is designed to run hotter...

I tow a travel trailer a lot and ran into head winds the rams mission was at 208 degrees. I know the light will come on if it gets too hot but would like to know what too hot is so I can monitor it?

There was a discussion on this a while back , you have nothing to worry about Sir .
Don't quote me but I think the normal range for the 8 speed xsmn is 180° -190 not towing.

The 8 speed does run hotter , it heats up via a thermostat that utilizes the coolant temp to heat it up quickly to 180 .

I'll post the discussion if I can find it .

Hope this helps !
