Perhaps you have a knackered UJ on a shaft?

On the other hand, ATF gets REALLY hot. Hotter than the engine coolant. Its probably normal.

If i rested my left foot against the transmission tunnel it was seriously uncomfortable! even with a body lift..

Neither of mine get uncomfortably hot. Lexurf has a 2" bodylift and I replaced the rubber transmission cooling hoses with larger diameter ones, maybe that helps.
The 'Navigator' is standard and pulling the caravan it didn't get so hot that I couldn't rest my left foot/leg against the tranny tunnel.
