transmission shifts a bit hard in my 2003 f150 5.4
Hey guys my truck shifts a bit hard nothin extreme but you can notice it. Is there someway to adjust the shifting on tranny? What do you all think? Thanks.. it's also a fx4 and the trans fluid is normal.

Change the trans fluid and filter. More than likely nothing is wrong. It's not grandmas cruiser.
You could adjust it, but most people adjust for a more firm shift. Either with a shift kit or tuner.

Without being able to drive it all we can do is guess. "Shifts a bit hard but not extreme" isn't much to go on. Like I said, you're fine...just drive and don't worry about it.

If you have a smooth shift, you'll burn out your trans. A good, firm shift is what you want, not one that jerks, but a solid shift. Should last quite a long time.
