Cool 2000 F350 XMission slipping in overdrive
My truck just started slipping in overdrive today. Is this going to be a job for the shop or could a selonoid or something else simple be going out?

When going up hill pulling 32' trailer loaded, you can see the tack going up and the truck slowing down.

I would suspect the TC is going out, but you should try hitting the OD off button, then the TC should be locked (depending on speed) and see what happens there.

Any mods to the truck? gauges?
