My '99 Ford Explorer hesitates at 33 MPH before kicking into gear?

Question

It's a very brief hesitation; maybe a half second. We had the tranny replaced 2 mos. ago. What could this hesitation be caused by? My mechanic suggests, hearing this by phone, it's something to do with the cooling system, but the car isn't overheating. Your take?
