hard downshifts

it sounds like a sticky valve in the valve body or a clutch seal or clutch pack friction lining failure. Needs proff. diagnosis including check of operating pressures.

The symptoms indicate the releasing clutch (gear) is disengaging well before the engaging clutch (gear) is making up.

If it shifts well otherwise (both normal and full throttle upshifts and normal downshifts), almost certaintly a sticking valve.
