Adjusted bands now shifting strange
Hello, wondering if I could get some suggestions. I recently did a transmission fluid refresh (drained pan, new filter and about 6-7 quarts of new fluid). I adjusted the bands per the factory service manual and know I set it right. My wife drives the truck as a DD and I really don't drive it at all except to camp. She doesn't eve know it's shifting weird, but I've driven it twice now and it feels like it is hunting for lower gears. It happens below 25mph leaving our neighborhood. Did I screw up adjusting one of the bands? If I recall there were some discrepancies that some on here deviated, I think it might have been the front band?? I just remember some saying to not back the bolt off as much as the FSM suggested or something along those lines. The truck only has about 50k miles on it and was shifting fine before. Just go figure, I messed with it. Anyone? Something I seem to recall was that on the one that gets reversed out further, I think I loosened it and counted the revolutions and expected to get the same when I took it down to it's torque setting. Kind of foggy memory so I can't recall if that was what really happened or not. Just hoping someone could chime in and if the factory settings should work just fine. I can't imagine the bands would be bad as it shifted fine before and the truck is not a work horse by any means. Thanks hopefully.
