Transmission slip in all gears

Transmission slip in all gears

I was driving to town about 3 miles from my house. I came to a stop and when trying to take off it just reved up and went no where. I checked all gears including R and same result.

I then shut off the truck and let it sit for about 2 minutes. I then started it up and it took off normally. After about 200 yards it slipped out and just reved up. I coasted to a stop and again all gears and R just reved up and no motion.

I finally limped home by stopping and shutting down 4 to 5 more times to get it going.

I dropped the pan at home and found blackish purple fluid whth a metalic sheet swirling around in it. I went ahead and changed the filter and cleaned off 3/4 of an inch of sludge/metalic crap off the magnet then buttoned it up and refiled with 4 quarts of new fluid.

It now drives but shifts very differently than pre problem. Hard 1st to second then soft on all other shifts. Revs up to 2800 or so going to overdrive and occasionally slips out of gear on take off.

Any thoughts on problem or advise on next steps?

139K on truck and changed fluid and filter at 50K and 100K.
