Shifts from 1st to 3rd down to 2nd and back to 3rd and that's the highest gear it reaches, top out at 70-75 mph and the red line limiter kicks in

so from 1st directly to third and if it tries 2nd(slippage or redlines with no power increase to ground?) it jumps back to third. and yiou have no overdrive at all either? and this all while in the Overdrive setting? what about manual selection of each gear? just want to clarify.

I would have to check my ATSG manual but I'm pretty sure 2+4 share the band, if thats burnt up those won't engage right. The servo on the side is what holds that band, possible leak there and the band is Ok ...

That is where I was heading. that or the possibility you damaged the sunshell or its splines but you usually lose reverse as well when that happens.

study this guide to see if you can't narrow it down on your own. this way you can take your time and piece it together.

Finally got the money together to get it fixed, got a full rebuild, when they tore it apart one if the gears was half way shredded and most the clutch plates were bad, runs like a dream now, ran me 1200 bucks
