Check it, see what ya think. If it's ok, probably time to drop the pan, and have a look, see if anything obvious presents itself.
Hello HeyYou been awhile sense I have texted, What stopped me is what you said about it sticking. My rpm is not letting it shift until 3 on 1st and 2nd , but then it goes through 3rd and OD Fast what I mean is when I get it through first and second its kind of feels like 3rd and OD are to close like milliseconds. which seems good to me all I have is peddle. Sorry for ramble? I'm checking the links @ the Trans, If Thats not it can you send me a link on the band adjustments hoping I don't have to go that fear. Thanks for your time.

Grab the service manual for your truck from here, procedures for TV Cable, and band adjustment are in there.
