85 300D Automatic transmission hits first shift at 4200rpm

I recently rebuilt the top half of my 85 300D. The car has an automatic transmission which doesn't hit its first shift until 4300 rpm. (1) Isn't this kind of high? and (2) (assuming the fuel pump and engine are working fine) What do I adjust to make the transmission shift properly?
Does anyone have a procedure? I can't find one on the service CD?
