I hate to ask a bunch of questions but I was wondering what symptoms loose bands in the transmission cause. Any info will be appreciated

 

Slow engagement of gears, possible slipping if they are really loose.

 

Heyyou sometimes when hit the passing gear the rpms will go to 3000 then it seems like it shifts into another gear then finally into o/d. Is that normal

 

Lol, well that confirms this is normal operation for this trans. Check out my thread right below yours for the same "issue"

Thanks for the help I thought my truck was the only one. The main problem I have is it want hold speed in o/d going up hills when it's cold but once you drive it 8 miles or so it really starts acting better. I wish it would down shift to 4tcunlocked like you said in your post sometimes if I hold my foot just right starting up the highway I can hold that until I reach the top of a big hill. But one the tclocks it constantly wants to drop back to 3rd
