If the engine isn't running right it might be taking more throttle to attain a given road speed and the trans will shift later due to the heavy throttle.
I'd get it running correctly and see if that helps the shifting.

Before you go yanking that trans I'd drop the valvebody for a look. My '02 Durango R/T all the sudden just started skipping 2nd gear and went to the local dealer here which tried to nail me for a 2500 dollar tranny rebuild. Took it to my trans guy expecting to have it rebuilt but when he dropped the valve body the piece for adjusting the band had fallen out! Got lucky and only cost me 200 to fix! Had the same thing happen in a 727 years ago also. Just letting you know what I went through with ours as I am almost certain that local dealer here would have went ahead and nailed me for a complete rebuild even after seeing the problem...
Definetly drop the pan always before you pull the trans. But remmember if the strut fell out there is a reason. It could have alot of miles and just got so far out of adjustment but thats not usually the cause. And check both ends of the band real close if it did fall out as you will usually find a crack in one end of the band where it is beefed up to support the strut. Ron

Well....we've seemed to have forgotten that the OP said the truck ran bad and stalled. Could be a definite correlation there. It being an RE trans,and in the '96-'99 range, I'd keep that possibility of a shorted O2 in mind. But yeah...might as well drop the pan...doesn't hurt to check.
