Search band adjustment on this fourm. There is a thread "how to" It would be better to have tranny shop do it. I understand they can be adjusted from the outter part of the tranny.

Drop the trans pan, change the filter, and refill until it reads full on the stick with the truck running in neutral. Do this every 20k - 25k miles and this will keep the fluid fresh in your trans.
Don't mess with the bands unless you start having shifting issues. If you over adjust them, or don't adjust them properly, than you'll run out of extra adjustment before it's really needed, or you could completely grenade your transmission.
