Re: 99 Durango Shifting Problem - Help

I have to run the engine rpm to around 5500 (maybe a couple of times), then let it return to near idle before it shifts to 3rd. The 3 - 4 shift has the same issue, only far less intense. I don't have to run the rpm nearly as high and the shift normally occurs sooner.
Any ideas? Solenoid or servo issue? Valve body issue? Could the Lockup Solenoid cause something like this to occur?

If this is a case of front clutch leakage, how is that repaired? Total rebuild, or is it just a matter of some O-ring gaskets?
The problem in the transmission,the direct drum is not sealing properly.transmission needs to be remove.
