91' bronco tranny OD problems
i can fix bout anything but i'm at a loss with trannys. My problem is the truck drives fine until it gets warm, once it get warm it down shifts outta od n into 3rd. It will shift back into od when i coast. it will also shift into od for a split second when i push the od off button on the shifter handle. i'm at a loss.
a lil more in is it's got roughly 160,xxx miles. 4x4 E4OD tranny. Does have hesitation when put into gear.
Any help would be greatly apperciated. i love this ol' truck n wanna get it better.

Don't mind him... the guys with the white coats and long sleeved white sweater will be along to round him up soon enough.
Welcome to FTE and the Big Bronco Forum. Some folks would rather be rude to people on their first visit and offer nothing useful. The rest of us are willing to give you the best info we can muster.
For starters, have you had a look at the fluid? When was the transmission last serviced (fluid/filter changed)? Old, dirty fluid and a clogged filter will cause a drop in hydraulic pressure inside the unit which can cause the kinds of issues you described. My advice would be to start there. Fluid should be bright red and cling to your fingertips better than clean motor oil. If it is dark or appears more brown try a fluid/filter change. IF you really want to get as much of the old fluid out as possible, check with your local lube shop. Often they have a machine that actually evacuates most of the old fluid and replaces it with new at the same time (think transfusion... no pun intended). This ensures that the fluid in the torque converter gets removed and replaced too. A regular fluid and filter change does not drain the converter.

Taking new style MLPS back to the dealer today. It did not align the neutral marks correctly. Changed solenoid pack twice. Cleaned connectors.
