2004 4l80e hot trans on hills
Hi my 2004 k2500 transmission gets up to 230f on any grade locked in 3rd gear and not gear hunting. Why is it getting that hot on hills?

I have had seen this spike on temps long before the PS leak. I was driving an interstate 6% grade last year and saw the trans reach 220F and it alarmed me mentally.
currently, I climb the 15% grades at 3200 rpm. Once I got home it was over 230, brakes were super pressurized, PS pump roaring ect. The PS pump was not low, just super hot!
the trans fluid is dex3. ps fluid whatever: prestone, stp, lucas oil.
