I wonder if they removed the CPS before removing and installing the trans.

Looking down the TB does nothing! Remove it(the TB) and look with a light and a small mirror. Or do the TSB which is useless IMHO.

truck has not had tune up in a while , the only thing i have done to it as far as tune up has been plugs . me and my dad put trans in our self we did not remove the cps. truck pulled real good until the bearing race in the converter came out and front pump gear. it is realy down on pulling power ,

did you only replace the TC? it may be time for a rebuild.....

also check the fluid, check while running in neutral to get an accurate reading.
