Default tranny problems

After 7 months of hell trying to get my 86 runnin good everything is finally in place. The only thing i havent touched in the transmission. it's the AOD. The problem is, it shifts hard (slams into next gear), takes a little while to downshift and doesnt coast. as soon as i let off the throttle you can feel the engine braking and feel it downshift once the speed is low enough. Any ideas?

Make sure the TV (Throttle Valve) cable is adjusted properly. From what I understand if not adjusted you can burn up the transmission in a few hundred miles.
Google AOD adjustment
