Clutch and flywheel question

I have studied about the Tilton pumps and they rate well.
There are two versions, one is a continuous duty the other is not. I had the continuous duty pump and it was very reliable. The only negative is that they are noisey, people in other cars will look to see where the noise is coming from. I even set up my own vibration elimination pads that allowed the pump to float within the feet against only rubber.
 
The truck has 94000 miles and has been treated gently with soft starts. When toeing, it pulls a 25 foot Fleetwood trailer with no slide-outs that is well under the capacity of the truck. It had the original fill of oil until a month ago. It was serviced at a local dealership and refilled with factory specked oil. Severe cold weather is what caused the damage. The truck is housed in a small barn with no heat. I do often use the block heater during the winter but that is of no help to the transmission. I ride a motorcycle year around unless there is ice or snow on the road in which case the truck comes out. It is also sometimes used on Sundays.

Did you figure out what was wrong with your truck? As mentioned, cold didn't kill anything in your transmission.
