98 E150 Hard Upshift

HI, I HAVE A 98 E-150 WITH A 4.6L IN IT. MY PROBLEM IS THAT IT UP SHIFTS REALLY HARD. I HAD THE TRANS FLUID AND FILTER CHANGED. INCLUDING THE TORQUE CONVERTER. THE TRANNY PLACE SAID THAT THE TRANS WAS FINE AND THE I HAVE A MOTOR PERFORMANCE PROBLEM AND THE COMPUTER IS HAVING THE TRANNY COMPENSATE FOR IT. THERE ARE NO TROUBLE CODES COMING UP. AND NEITHER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR THE OD LIGHT IS ON. HAS ANYONE HEARD OF THIS BEFORE. ANY SUGGESTIONS. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO BRING IT INTO THE SHOP, SO ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE APPRECIATED. O-YA IT HAS 55,000 ON IT. THANKS.

Welcome to FTE. Please do not use all caps, no yelling needed here.
Your best bet would be try your question in the transmission forum. There are more qualified users for trannys ober there.
You may try unhooking the battery for a bit to reset the computer. It may or may not help.
