03 trans problems

Hello all, I just replaced the trans and torque converter in my 03 (5r110 torqueshift) with a trans out of an 04, everything worked fine except for a small rattle. I drove it to town and back and left it running for a few minutes and when I got back in it drove abt 30 ft and slowed to a stop. It didn’t feel like slipping it just felt like I let off the gas. Haven’t messed with it or tried it again since then. Any advice will be much appreciated, thanks.

Check torque converter bolts would be my guess. Sounds to me like they backed out or sheared off. Did you reuse the old ones? If so that could be your problem, I believe they're Torque-To-Yield.
