Todd, if you haven't already, change the fluid and filter and try driving it
for a few days. Next, try disconnecting the 'kickdown' linkage (assuming
your transmission has a mechanical linkage for this as most Chrysler
products did). If the problem persists, I would try disconnecting the shift
linkage at the transmission and retesting (obviously you'll want to do this
in an area where you don't have to back up) just to be certain it isn't
something like the motor shifting on it's mounts and moving the linkage
slightly. Don't forget to set the E-brake when you park <g> After that,
I'd guess it's a valve body problem.
