I would have to say no,there is nothing else you can do now. Does the fluid smell burned? Is it discoloured? If it is ok now after the top up and additive ,consider your self lucky.
Make sure your emergency brake cable hasn't seized up. Some vehicles use reverse to adjust the brakes. Try moving the vehicle with the clutch pushed in, then with the clutch out to make sure it is not sticking, check your shifter linkage to make sure it is not bent or sticking.
3rd and 4th gear clutches are the same. The overdrive section is worn out thus resulting to this problem. have the transmission repaired with a new overdrive section.
Replace the transmission fluid. I think those used ATF, but check to be sure. (if you made the mistake of using 80/90w drain it...those transmissions were not designed for 80/90w. gear oil)
Your vehicle should have the A4LD trans.Some of those small Bronco's had C-5....3 speed,lockup trans in them.If yours is indeed the O.Drive trans,4th gear in that trans is totally mechanical and hydraulic control.The only electricals in that year trans is lockup apply inside the torque convertor,and that happens after the 3-4 upshift.Later version DID have a solenoid for 4th gear.4th gear consists of the Forward clutch pack applied,and the front band,or O.D. band.This band is applied with a servo piston.It is a steel core piston with a pin and a rubber bonded covering with molded in lip seals.These servos are known for the rubber hardening,and no longer applying the band.Sometimes the band gets burnt to the point of no good,but installing a new piston is possible without removing the trans.Other than the servo piston,or without checking the valves in the valvebody,pretty much the trans would have to come out and be inspected.Good luck.j
