So my 97 tbird lx 4.6 auto is loosing the transmission it has a bad torque converter shudder from 3-4 and slips in and out of 4th example would be if your doing 70 and let off the gas it's like you shifted to neutral then when you re-engage throttle it hits pretty rough anyone have a 4r70w they want to sell?
 
Dropping out of gear like that could be a bad MLPS. Have you checked the fluid condition? Using Mercon V?

Fluid full changed fluid about 2 years ago when I put that trans in it from a donor car also did the filter not sure where the sensor is
 
What's the fluid look like now though?

The MLPS is bolted onto the side of the tranny, let's the computer know what gear the car should be in. If it's bad that might be your problem.

Doesn't look really dark doesn't smell off is the sensor on the shifter cable side I think I'm rembering the neutral safety switch
