4.7 will have a 45RFE trans
There are no bands, or for that matter any adjustments.
If you are servicing it, make darn sure you replace the primary filter seal and that it gets seated correctly in the pump (There are two filters in there) if the seal is not seated it will suck air and cause all kinds of issues.

So what needs to be done to these short of drining the fluid, and replacing the filter?
Thanks for the help Rick.

OK thanks. I'm doing this for a coworker. He said that when he comes to a stop, about a half second later he feals a light bump, like it's lurching forward a little. Guess it's not bad but noticable. Convertor unlocking? Sorry automatics are not my thing, just trying to help him out.

45RFE's are not my thing( suck to work on and i'm not as a familiar with them like I am a A604 or 727/904 based trans) but it sounds like a clutch pack playing catchup . meaning possible internal issues.
IF it's just a hard seal issue. Servicing it will probably help,,,for a while.
It might be a speed sensor and/or solenoid pack/valve body issue but I highly doubt it.
Torque conv should be unlocked loooonnnng before it comes to a stop
