NEED HELP! 99 DODGE 1500?

I HAVE A 99 DODGE 1500 SPORT 4X4 WITH 5.9. I just bought it and it has a bit of a shifting problem it doesnt do it all the time just some times, but it will drive then eventually it will stick and over rev also not allowing it to shift. I can put it in neutral and back in drive and it will shift fine. I had it hooked up at oreileys and the only code it brought up was neutral safety switch. I switched that out and it still does it. What else could it be??? Also my buddy is who i got it from and he just put another tranny in it from a salvage yard... What could be making this do this and what should i try and change to make it shift better and right???? Thanks for your alls help!

    The salvage yard tranny could possibly be no good. When replacing an entire unit like a transmission, its best to go new or rebuilt, or have your tranny rebuilt. Those Chrysler trannies of that era are known for going bad. Good luck.
