I can see however that in OD, pushing more torque can be bad. I saw that with a diesel suburban and the 700R4 transmission. We leaned on the pump, and it could hold OF better on hills. However the clutches and such were too small for that much torque in OD and eventually caused failure of OD.

Is there a cheat sheet somewhere to help us newbies decipher some of the lingo? I'm guessing OD is overdrive, but whatz OF? Thanx
