Such a thing as too cold?
Looking at everyone's signature, quite a few of you guys have B&M coolers on your tranny in addition to Ford's. Have any of you had any shifting problems at low temperatures under light loads, believe it or not there is actually such a thing as too cold. I was just wondering, I want to do the same thing to my truck, so many mods planned but so little money to spend.

Pennsylvania is too cold, I hate these winters lol

But I have never noticed a difference in my trans shifting in cold temps. If oyu are feeling bad shifts if you have synthetic in your transmission it could possibly be the problem, as synthetic works to cool down heat temp.

Awww, Tioga county is fun in the winter...

Yes there can be too cold, but keeping the in radiator cooler in the winter gets the fluid to the min temp pretty quick.
