ok finally got my pan off last night and here is a pic of it:
It looked alot worse in person but its had like silver mud build up in filter and in pan and the filter was heavy and im sure it was clogged. I didnt notice a ton of shavings or anything crazy. I also drove the truck around last night and everything went well so hopefuly the problem is fixed.

I cant see the pic, but if there is material in the pan i can assure you the problem will be back. Its most likely a clutch material which means a clutch pack (most likely 3-4) is breaking down. you have adaptives in your pcm correcting as much as it can to keep you from feeling the issue. i suggest you keep saving up because it may not be long.

Not at all. it has whats called TAP cells which will adjust shift time to happen withing a certain window. They can only adjust to a certain point and then it will get soft or hard. i would bet if you had a scanner that could reset them it would have a lazy shift somewhere. you may get lucky and ride out for a while, but i highly suggest keeping the money ready for a rebuild.

Yea if there was enough mud in the pan to clog the filter... your timing is limitied. Thats alot of clutch material!
Oh and do i get a cookie or something for guessing it right the first time??
