Help, shifting question.
Just picked up my travel trailer today for the first time in six months, while towing it home i noticed a very firm if not hard 2-3 shift under heavy acceleration up a hill. I dont remember it shifting this hard last year, although i will admit i had my foot in it too check out the new straght piped exhaust, which i never do. Now i got the truck used last august so i only towed with it maybe three times before parking the trailer for the season. The trailer wieghs close to 8000lbs. Is this normal? Anything to check? Tranny was flushed 4500 miles ago. Of course i'm leaveing for indy wednesday. Figures!!

See thats the problem, i bought it used off of a ford dealer lot. I know for a fact it was used to haul a large slide in camper, the trucks from alaska by way of n. carolina, so its seen some highways, although it only had 42k on it when i bought it. Nothing is obivously aftermarket on it and its truly a cream puff inside and out, no farm truck.(no offense to farmers) Although i cant see in the tranny, the fluid was clean when i bought it. I guess i'm just being paranoid, at least i hope!!
