(I also flushed the trans fluid and replaced the filter about a year ago but the delayed shift was still happening before the flush. Fluid level is correct)
A month or so ago it started delaying the shift from 1st to 2nd occasionally, and when it did shift it was a hard shift.
Within the past week or so that delay has increased with higher rpms and seemed to be from 1st to 2nd and maybe 2nd to 3rd. Sometimes it wont shift and I have to bring the rpms down and up until it catches the next gear. Occasionally it throws me into limp mode now too.
Pulled a code P2714 Pressure control solenoid D stuck off. (SLT Solenoid) so I replaced that. Tested the old one and it was fine (5.6 ohms and worked with 12v applied)
No improvement with the shifting. Then threw another code.. P0771 solenoid E stuck off as well as the P2714 again.
I pulled valve body and installed a full transgo rebuild kit as well as an accumulator piston and a pr boost valve. No improvement.
When I had the vb out I looked at the clutches and they seemed to be fine without anything blued or burnt. Also nothing in the pan as far as metal...just a tiny bit of metal dust.
If I did need to swap out the trans, what vehicles can I use as donors? v6 and v8's the same trans?....just as long as its 4x4.
Thanks for any insight!

Have you checked the electrical connector, it's on the driver's side of the transmission, the pins in the connector have been know to get corroded and lose connection, the connector is hard to get too, you can get a better look at the pins after disconnecting it using your cellphone to take photos or videos, some have cut a "window" in the hump/floor sheet metal on 3 sides and folded the sheet metal out of the way to get better access to the connector from the inside.
I know there at least a couple of threads on the forum about how to go about fixing or replacing the connector, there's also some YouTube videos on trying to fix the connector, some clean the connector and then carefully drill and replace any bad pins with small drill bits or wire.
