It gave no warning. slips in every gear. is due for recommended scheduled service.fluid level is fine. color and smell seem fine too.thought I'd try fluid filter change first, but don't know what transmission it has or the capacity.
(lost owners manual)it's the basic model Cheyenne.is this worth a shot or am I wasting my time and putting off the inevitable rebuild?
Myself I would give the fluid filter change a shot.
If the fluid still looks good then most likely you haven't smoked any clutches. It could just be the filter is clogged and not picking up fluid properly.
Of course it is possible that it is something more serious.
Parts store should be able to hook you up with correct filter and probably capacity.
Transmission
gear assembly and transmission needs inspection. Also check the transmission
fluid level. Also is the fluid getting leaked or its low.
There
are few very helpful links with solutions to troubleshoot these problem.

Usually answered in minutes!
just tried it out.worked fine at first,after about a mile or two it started to slip. slips in all gears Od 3 2 1 & R . Turned it off for maybe three minutes and was able to drive back home.
changed filter and fluid yesterday.seems to have done the trick,but have noticed it hesitates a little (feels like it slips a little) changing into 2nd gear.everything else seems normal.wonder what 2nd gear thing could be? any thoughts?
