97 4.0 auto mostly stock.
I've had this for a little while now and can't figure it out.
In the mornings after sitting over night the first few shifts into 2nd are really jarring, my drive through the neighborhood has me stopping a few times and each time going from 1st to 2nd is harsh. It seems after a few of those and things warm up it shifts nice and smooth by the time I'm out onto a main road. When it sits for a few hours it doesn't have this problem, only when sitting over night.
The fluid is fresh and I am leaning towards the transmission mount being bad. I had a bad transmission leak a while back and I think maybe the fluid was hitting the mount and ate away the rubber. I'm worried its an internal issue though also, maybe worn bands or anything else I could do to narrow it down.
