Truck shifts to neutral when I hit a bump.

Truck shifts to neutral when I hit a bump.
As the title states, my ranger shifts into neutral while in reverse when a bump is hit. This frequently happens when I'm driving in reverse over a "speedbump" in my driveway and the only way to fix it is to put the car in park and then back to reverse. I have an automatic c3 transmission with a floor shifter if that info is of any value. I also replaced the filter and fluid with 3 quarts of type V fluid recently but this problem persisted before that change.
Another problem is that once I hit 35 I can no longer accelerate and the engine only revs up from that point on. No idea if the problems are correlated. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I think its going to neutral only because the engine returns to its idle RPMs, which is slightly higher than drive and reverse. It has slipped when I was in drive before so I really hope that isn't the case but your insight is definitely a possibility in which i may have to look in to. Thank you!
