E4OD hard/delayed shift into reverse

1995 Ford F150 5.8L 4x4 EB 389,000 Mile's. Owner since 2001. Religious maintenance schedule I do myself. Literally over night started shifting hard into reverse. Trans fluid/filter resent service. Fluid level good. U joints good. Trans mount good. Differential good. Engine RPM good. No codes. Had the miss's put the truck in reverse while I laid underneath and watched... MLPS - linkage - shifts into reverse, watch the slip yoke movement and it's almost as if the trans is searching then BAMM, into reverse. Any thoughts???

Sorry to say this but you mentioned "Trans fluid/filter resent service". There is a current thread on the topic of transmission filters. They are known to drop which causes a hard reverse shift and/or engine stalling.

The simple test is to drop the pan then inspect the filter to see if it has become dislodged or completely dropped into the pan. There is a filter clip available to prevent this from happening.

Here is the thread: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ilter-fit.html

I did check the filter to see if it drop. That was the recent fluid/filter change. Never had that problem though.
