If your trans is getting stuck then you may a few things going on that are bad or are going to go when you replace one new part with old. First check the trans shaft and the flat ares where the bearing rolls on and off, if it is rounding on the corner then you had the shose too far out and they were overlapping so the shoes maybe harmed also, I would also replace the trans maint. kit which has the balls,spings and set screws.

So shaft,shoes and maintenance kit.
