Default Shifting problems

I have a 1991 Dodge 3/4 ton with a Cummins it has a automatic overdrive transmission. The transmission has started shifting out of overdrive when I let off the gas. it doesn't matter what speed i'm going. If anyone has any ideas at what would cause this I would appreciate your info. Thanks

I'm wondering if there isn't a cable that needs to be adjusted.

Also might want to adjust your TPS. They seem to get out of wack...

Here is the kick-down adjustment
