What year is the truck? There are a couple threads about this problem but not much. I have the same damn thing and it's annoying.

Here are the parts I'm planning on replacing in mine to hopefully fix the problem.
#12GBP. All Dodge RWD Governor Bore Plug Kit
#REC

Here is the sight I used to find the parts. Scroll down the page 2/3s of the way to find #REC.. Not the cheapest place to buy parts.
PATC 46RE 47RE 48RE Transmissions, Performance Transmission A518, 518
 
This is my step dads truck its a 07 5.9 ccsb 4x4 smarty s06 revo intake and exhaust and intercooler

Trans is stock and had dealer update for the 1- 2. 2- 3. Shifts

Unplug the the alternator and see if the problem goes away.
 
Theres a presure switch inside the valvue body that causes it sometimes

Sent from my DROIDX
 
I've seen people replace their governor solenoid to the new Bosch units and it sometimes fixed it, others I have seen upgrade their valve body with a Goerend, Suncoast, ATS, etc... and they claim their hunting stopped. Just food for thought.
