Who has aftermaket pan on there trans ? Who also has the deep and the double deep and is it worth the money.Not sure if I'am in the right forum but I sure if I'am not someone will fix it
Thanks Luc

 

Someone must have put an a/m pan on there rides ?

 

I have been thinking about this too. My research ended up with an additional cooler up front will do more good for the money spent, which I hope to do soon. Research replacement of your trans lines at the same time, connectors may cause a problem. Ken

 

I have a deep on mine. Holds more fluid therefore more cooling time in the pan. Pan also has some cooling fins on it and a very handy drain plug that's also magnetic.

 

I just ordered an ATS pan today. I think it was around $280. They said it will hold an additional 5 quarts.

 

I put a B&M pan on mine, same capacity as stock (6 quart). how ever it is aluminum with fins and has a drain plug with a magnet. more fluid wont help the cooling, but the aluminum pan and after market cooler with electric fan, has made a huge differance on my truck. I tow everyday and the fluid never gets over 140 degrees. I hope that helps you, OH, the B&M pan is only $130.00

 

Our trucks come with a pretty efficient transmission cooling system. I think I'd install a gauge and make sure there was an actual problem before I tried to improve the system.

 

I agree with torquefan. While a deeper pan will cause the fluid to heat up slower, it will also be slower to cool all the fluid down. You would be much better off buying a gauge to monitor the fluid temp, then if you want the drain plug just weld in a bung. Any leftover money could be put towards an additional cooler if your tranny is getting warm.

 

Is this the oil pan?

My DTT rebuild came with the Mag Hytec pan. I'm not sure if it made a difference of any kind other than being easy to drain and change the fluid.

 

I like my mag hytec double deep, it is a super strong pan and will help the structural integrity of the transmission as a whole.

 

I believe thats it. you cant use the filter that comes with the 727 pan cuz the diesels have there own style. nor do you need the extension for the filter cuz that pan is the same depth as stock. but the gasket and pan will fit. OH, and dont get chrome get raw aluminum. chrome holds heat better then it dissipates it.

 

I got the regular deep magtec pan. I like having the drain plug on it I do agree that money could be spent better elsewhere first.

 

Mag Hytec here.... single deep though.... real tough pan... i never knew what my stock tranny temp was... hot enought for there to be blue spots on the stock converter.... me and Dave think my temps are a little high 180 or so driving empty... 190-200 towing light.... i need to break down and get a cooler with a fan on it.....
