question about wheelin?
I went wheelin the other day, and I was checking the temp gage to make sure I didn't over heat and it didn't, but i felt like the transmission was running hot (center of vehicle by gear shift) is this normal, whats recomended?

Your transmission will certainly get hotter than normal while wheelin. This is why most guys that run autos get an auxiliary transmission cooler and mount it in front of the radiator.

We were doing that at Evans Creek mostly because we had to stop every 30 minutes to get somebody unstuck.
We stop at Walker after finishing each trail before moving on to the next.
