Here are the symptions:
- Harsh P-R engagement. P-D does not seem to be a problem.
- Harsh 2-3 & 3-2 while driving slowly (i.e., driving in neighborhood or city driving. I don't notice it when accelerating quickly)
- I haven't noticed a surge in RPM.
- U-joints (they appear to be in good shape and the harsh engagements are not present between any other gears)
- Fluid level (checked after driving, going through gears, flat surface, etc...)

I replaced the output sensor... No noticeable change.
Adjusted TV cable ... Fixed the shifting problems. (still have a clunk from P-R though)
Now my tranny shifts so smooth, you can barely feel it yet I still have plenty of power and kickdown. My question... Is there excessive strain on the tranny with this super smooth shifting? My rpms are saying pretty low but I still have plenty of power. Just want to make sure my adjustment is correct.
