You might want to check into seeing if the tranny computer is ok. This is a common problem with them. It will go into limp mode and only give you one forward gear. Mainly either 2nd or 3rd. The main symptom is revving alot to get going and then not shifting at all.

Or if it's slipping when going into overdrive it could be the clutch packs for the overdrive.

Either way, it might not be a whole tranny that you need. The computer can be sent to Kearney Auto (I think that's the name) in Austin, MN and they'll rebuild it for you for about $175 or so. This is a separate computer from the engine computer.

Might be a few things to look into before swapping out a whole nother tranny.
