Thanks. I'll handle the door when the VSS is done. One thing at a time since I'm not a good multi tasker. Now I have to roll the window down and reach outside, push the button on the outside to open the door. Next thing on the list. By the time I get done with this truck, I'll be able to offer advise and help people like you guys. Live and learn right?

OK, I finally had the time and the temp is about 45 degrees outside and put the new VSS on. I haven't tried it out yet since I'm alone with the kids but it's finally on. Everything went fine on the install and Thank all of you for that. If I have any trouble with it I'll come back and ask. If I don't, I'll come back and report. HAHA I can't wait!!! Now it's onto the door handle and probably I'll look for threads on how to improve MPG. Take care everybody and be safe.

Mine does similar things, but at a much more violent rate. I have a triple disk billet converter and I feel it lock hard as hell, and that shift into fourth is rough too since there is no slippage in the converter.

Yes it is. It never worked really well in the diesel E4ODs because of the software and the stock tunes that ran with it. When you add a triple disc converter with a lot more clutch capacity to the equation it is likely that it never unlocks during the shift.
