Speedometer-Transmission link trouble

'97 Expedition XLT 4x4, 5.4L, E4OD Trans

Transmission started shuddering—codes 755 & 1728 replaced Solenoid pack and torque converter. Worked fine for 3 weeks then speedometer started behaving erratically swinging from 0 to 60 or whatever speed I was doing.
Highway at 65 speedometer would drop to 30 or 40 or 10 or 0 whatever. Then transmission would go to neutral and the RPMS would spike to 4000-4500 had to back-off the accelerator—maybe it will go back into gear or sometimes I have to pull over and stop—then trans works fine for 1-2 miles. Works fine under load of acceleration or going up a hill but goes to neutral when I back off the accelerator and start going down hill. I have replaced both speed sensors—one at rear end and other behind and at top of trans. First start-up in morning everything is ok—after warm-up 3-4 miles the trans begins to mis-behave as described.

Any Ideas?
