Transmission shifting hard @ 20mph and slipping about 30 mph
2001 ford ranger edge 4.0 2wd automatic. I changed out my radiator,fan blade, and water pump. Took it for a test drive after idling for 20 min checking for leaks and let it reach operating temp. All was fine til I put it in reverse to back out of driveway. I felt a slight jolt. I proceeded to put truck in drive felt it again. Got up to 20 mph and truck would NOT shift. Let off accelerator and it shifted. Got up to 25-30 mph and transmission began to slip. RPM s began to decrease while accelerating. Obviously I quit accelerating and crept home a few blocks away. Checked trans fluid. Its in the xxxxx, pink, and doesnt smell burnt. Been a bit since trans filter has been changed. Its been a good truck. 270,000 miles hate to put her to rest. She still had alot of pep til I changed out radiator,fan,water pump. Drive to grocery store and walmart few times a week. Hoping she'd hang around a bit longer. Any thoughts besides shooting her. Yes, I'm talking about my truck Thanks
