overheating update

okay, i guess i forgot to mention this before, but the truck will not ever overheat while it is in park or idling. it will get up to temp, the tstat will open and the fans come on. it is only overheating while the vehicle is moving....

what could cause this??? transmission?
i figure....
the tranny is getting really hot, heating up the engine from the back to the front, and thats what causes the engine to overheat, and then the front and top of the engine heats up and finally the tstat opens up??

it makes sense to me....
