Unhappy Transmission feels "jerky"

Hey guys, I own a 2001 ford f150 sport 4x4. today I was driving home from school when my truck starting doing a constant "jerkiness" every time I hit the gas. I checked my U-joints, I just replaced one a month ago and the other is still solid, but when I let off the gas the riding smooths right out. it also can't decide sometimes to shift down or up when going 45-50mph. it seems to help when I turn overdrive off. any help would be great,thanks guys!

I changed my spark plugs and everything runs great.
