tranny shifts hard when hot or under load...

Hello all,

My transmission shifts pretty smooth when cold (love the feeling); but hard (slamming/thumping) once the engine's hot (or tranny fluid is hot), or under load (light hill or with passengers) - especially the 3-4 shift. I've tried to adjust the vacuum modulator CCW one slot - it helps but I don't think it's gonna cure the problem.

Could someone please help ?

Any comments are greatly appreciated!
TIA,
Frank.

P.S: It's an '86
