    How hot is hot? Did you dash light come on? Did you use an infra-red gun on the lines going to and coming from your shuttle cooler? Are you referring to the trans/diff oil? Phil

    htr Phil it was so hot I could not touch the lines. I figured it out . when you have a split in the muffler and it blows right on those lines it gets hot!!!!!!!!!!! New muffler ordered problem solved THANKS Phil
