Well AAA towed my truck once and the 360 got so hot it burnt the oil off of the outside of the case. It was smoking. That ruined the tranny and the tow company had to buy me another.
They left the transfer case in gear.

When I had my Fast cooler attached to the side and running 7 quarts of 5w-30 Mobil 1, it would hang around 140-150* running solo.
