Im wondering if I have an issue here. I have a 1994 f250 7.3 with a banks sidewinder mated up to an e4od with a banks trans command module. The rear end is geared at I believe 4:10.
The truck has 106k and the transmission has been rebuilt.
This past weekend I was towing my 4000lb trailer and I had the thing floored to get up a small grade from a standing start. The tranny sat in 3rd for what felt like an eternity getting up to over 3000rpm. The boost was reading around 10psi and the pyro was around 1000-1100. The trans temp was around 210.
It seems that this thing should pull an ultralight camping trailer with little to no effort. Am I missing something here or doing something wrong? I’m planning on going over the cascades and bitteroots next month. I’m new to towing and a starting point for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated
