Who Uses a Mag Hytec DD Trans Pan??

Who out there is running a MH double deep trans pan?

727-DD should be the part number....

Any issues with the depth of the pan?

Just getting ready to order one for my trans project and wanted to make sure there was plenty of room and clearance for it....

Adds a nice 4 quarts to the system!

THANKS!

I've been running one on mine since 15K miles. Has 125K now. No problems, very nice unit...helps keep the fluid cooler and provides 4 extra quarts of fluid. No issues with the depth.

No issues with mine ether tucks up uder the cross member by about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch so you don't catch it on anything.

No problems, and easy install. Mine is above the bottom of the frame so no drag issues.

Arrow DD user here too

No clearance issues on mine. I like the magnetic drain plug to see the debris too.

I agree with everyone else. Pulling my 30 foot camper, trans temps dropped 10 degrees. No issues with clearance.

I know this wasn't the question but I wanted to mention, with the mag h rear dif cover my spare tire didn't fit in the under bed location. Could be partly because I upgraded the receiver hitch also. But I now have the spare in the bed tucked under the tool box. Stays cleaner there anyway. But I still love it and my DD tranny pan.

Hmm...I wonder why your spare won't fit with the MH rear diff. Mine fits fine.

Have you tried putting the spare on the ground...put the cradle in the hole and start lifting it........and once you have it partly lifted pull down on the rear of the tire/rim and lift up the front over the MH cover. Then finish raising it up.

I have the tranny pan and the rear diff cover. I put both on the truck the week I took it home, I love both. You clearance issue with the diff cover is because you have a short bed truck. I have a mile of room with the lb.

I didn't even think about that when I made my comment, Tim. Guess that would make a difference.
