Is the check engine light coming on when this happens? Does it ever do it at lower speeds, or when climbing a long hill?

No the light does not come on, it did before changing the speed sensor, now the light is off and the bucking after 50 mph is going on, changed plugs, wires, and speed sensor.

Has this problem just started since the VSS was replaced? If so, is it shifting properly? Is the speedo working properly?

No, it did it before, the first speed sensor was broke, it was replace and is fine, the bucking was before that's why we changed it.
