Down Shifting Problem on E40D

I have the standard 5.0 V8 and E40D transmission, i noticed that since i have owned it that when i come off the highway at 45+MPH the truck wont downshift by itself, it hums and shakes like i just threw the jake brake on my diesel rig. unless i put the truck into neutral it wont downshift from any gear until completly stopped, even when i have to slow down because of a blue hair. the only way i can get it to shift is by stepping on the gas, which puts it back into "Passing Gear" but other than that it is quite content to shake and shudder.

Help is appreciated, i am starting to lose dash bolts from all the shaking
