Transmission problem
2000 GMC Sierra V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I replaced a friends burned out Tranny with a used Tranny from a wrecked truck. I would like to know when it shift from 1st to 2nd it shifts really hard. Is there an adjustment on it that I can do or would it be better left to the transmission experts?

Was it a direct fit replacement trans? I can tell you it could be a shift solenoid, but I need to know if the trans came from the same year, make, model... vehicle?
