RE: Who knows the transmision really well
You can adjust the tranny at the throttle body also.
Passenger side of the throttle body towards the back there is a linkage. You have to release the clip and adjust the slider then lock it back into place. You may do this a few times to get it exactly where you like it. The only thing you need to watch is the second third gear overlap. Good luck.

That is to adjust the slack for the TV cable, which should have about a maximum of 1mm of play, correct? That's not going to affect the 2-3 shift if the bands aren't adjusted properly.

I believe that is the other cable. There are two on that same bracket,the one you wantis the outboard. According to the Mopar guy, whom I spoke with yesterday, said he did not like the way it was shifting and told me I could do that adjustment to my liking.

That's the TV cable. It adjusts the upshift but is not going to correct issues with mis-adjusted bands.

RE: Who knows the transmision really well
mine shifts in 2nd at 2500 rpms at 25 mph 3rd at 3100 rpms at 40-45 mph and 4th at 2500 rpms at 55-60 mph holding throttle steady. w/o throttle 2nd shifts at 30mph at 2800rpms 3rd shifts at 3500 at 50mph and 4thshifts at 60 at 2500 rpms
RE: Who knows the transmision really well
If your transmission is shifting into 3rd at 50 mph, then the seals are hard in the front drum and is causing your shifting problem. No adjustments will fix this problem, time for a seal kit and clutches if needed.
