    Changed trans gear oil with synthetic which made shifting much harder
    Went on line for info and basically just read quite a bit of talk.
    Decided to contact corporate about problem.
    Their response was to drain 75w90 synthetic out of trans as soon as possible and replace with conventional oil.
    So I did and now it shifts nice and smooth again.
    So for anybody out there trying to figure out what oil to use, your problem is solved
    For what it's worth I used valvolin 75w90 conventional gear oil
