With out even looking at the post, the answer is Yes. My trans was rough and was serviced. It's now out of commission. You know anyone who wants to buy a good running 3.8L with recently changed head gaskets?
You might check the CV joints. The cost for a transmission shop is not cheap. I wish I could afford it, I have to put a used AOD in my girlfriends car tomorrow that she just bought for $400. It's strait, my friends parents know the owner of a big junk yard in town and was able to get a good used tranny (with t/c) for $225. I was just pissed cause she bought a car with a smoked tranny and oil shooting out of the valve covers.
Good Luck,
Pete
