We tow a horse trailer with our 2005 Ram 3500 dually auto. When towing in the mountains the trans temp will get up to 230 deg. as this year does not have the abililty to lock out the overdrive(both the 04 and 06 DOES have this option) its difficult to keep the temps down. Does anyone else tow with this model and, if so, what has been your solution.
Thanks
Fred
look at this option:
BD Diesel 2005 Dodge OverDrive LockOut
BD Diesel Performance offers you the new OverDrive LockOut for the 2005 Dodge, It gives a control of the overdrive back to the driver allowing and disabling the 4th gear when needed for exhaust brake use or pulling up a hill.
