1998 dodge 2500 5.9 transmission slipping
Hi, two main things cause this to happen. Low fluid or clogged filter, and/or faulty one way valve in the fluid pump. I have had to replace fluid pumps in cummins transmissions before and usually the torque converter along with it. Also I've heard of people installing aftermarket one way valves in the fluid cooler lines to help remedy this problem in these trucks as well with some success. Talk to a local transmission shop in your town/city about this problem, I'm sure if they know what they're doing and are a reputable shop, they'll know your problem right away and can advise what repairs can be done in further detail. But remember, check the fluid level first(if you haven't already) and when the vehicle in running warm, fill accordingly until in operating range.

Have the system scanned for fault codes, I think you may have a defective VSS (vehicle speed sensor), but don't replace it before you have the fault code test run, a defective computer and or wiring to the VSS can also cause the same problems.
