Honestly.......time to stop spending money "guessing" and take it to a reputable trans shop or unfortunately, the stealership.
Not the answer you wished for but, you just can't keep spending money and throwing parts at this hoping to fix it IMHO.

Your old post, you wrote you have a hemi motor. Thats means you have a 545RFE transmission. First thing I would have done at the dealer was perform a clutch test, after that road test and verify the problem. Once the problem was verify, then remove the pan and inspect the accumulator cover on side of the valve body. Its very common for the plate to break and bend. When this does happen you will loose 3rd and 4th gears. Thats doesn't mean that is what is wrong with your truck. If the plate is not broken, then I remove the valve body and perform an air check to the clutch packs. If they are not leaking, then I would reommend a valve body assy.
You need to follow this guys advice! having someone say "they don't think" isn't good enough. I proved the dealer wrong more than once on what they thought the problem was and what I knew it was!
