The torque converter would not lock up during acceleration, only at your top gear at an even pace (the torque converter drops your engine rpm's at higher speed to increase fuel economy and decrease the demand on your engine) so probably not. I don't have a good guess on this one yet, but I'm working on it.

the guy told me the 4wd switch stoped working
as soon as that stoped working thats when it started doing it. when it shifted into high gear
around 40-45 that's when it starts doing it.

we had a similar problem with ours
take it to a free inspection tranny place and they can narow it down but it may have something to do with the clutch packs of your higher gear but more likely its the cylinoid and governor ones a switch ones a sensor and it made ours better
