I found my last trans on craigslist. guy was parting out a wrecked explorer got it for a good price to.
 






Thanks. i have been checking craigslist like its my job lol not much luck tho
 






Once it slams into gear, it operates normally until you put it in park again?

If thats the case, I wouldn't be looking at replacing the transmission yet.
There may be a solenoid valve that's failing. There was a post on here not to long ago, similar issue, wound up being the line pressure solenoid valve.

You might want to troubleshoot a bit more.
 






hey thanks for the info. i looked into it and that may be the issue. anyone know where to buy a solenoid kit???
