Uphill reverse with a heavy load on an already hot 4R100 can be a killer. Its best to let it cool down after a long slow pull before attempting it. I had my 02 do that a couple times on me (puke fluid) and wished I would have had a decent tranny temp gauge. I never had any problems with it for the year I owned it after that though. But as already suggested, a good cooler and temp guage is the best way to protect your trans.
