Just an idea but have you checked and or cleaned the governor sometimes they get crap stuck in them and this can happen.

Do you have a kickdown cable on it, sometimes they are picky without one. If it is not setup as a manual valvebody it needs a kickdown cable. If it has a an adjustable modulator you can adjust it to change the shift points.

Check your vacum line first. Make sure kickdown cable isn't in partial downshift.

i will check those things in the morning left the truck at my buddys house i dont have any more driveway room here

i replaced the clutches in this trans cuz the idiot whohelped me install it in my truck forgot to tighten up a clamp and blew out a trans cooler line and smoked the clutches. so i replaced all teh clutches and changed what ever seals and orings that were in the kit the only thing i didnt do is take the pump apart. and the way the trans went is i was driving up the street maybee 1/4 mile and id started slipping so i quickly turned around and coasted it home and repaired the line refilled it and drove it fine till it started slipping again a few months later so i gutted the truck and rebuilt the trans.

the trans seems to be gettin worse its really hangin in gear now. when i drove it the mile to my house lastnight it hung up bad but it still shifted and felt like a normal shift

The case can be bored and a bushing installed. The next thing that will happen is the gov will cock in the bore and take out the plastic gear on the end.
