Newbie Tranny problems

I just got my new to me 2002 back from the body shop. I installed the daystar leveling kit and was taking it to get aligned when I noticed the tranny sliping on take off..... then a mile or so later it started sliping all the time... I pulled over checked the fluid and proceeded it worked ok but still slipped at take off 1800-2000 rpms at take off with very little throtle. On the way home it started slipping again barley made it home. It is throwing a code that was described by dealer as Low/high trans pressure.... Is it a basket case or just a simple fix..... Please say simple fix......LOL I just got the truck and have already spent a ton on it. This is the first time I have driven the truck since I got it so I dont know much history on it other than the wreck it was in...LOL Thanks for any help in advance

Body shop!! Something was probably busted in the wreck! If it didn't need replaced, I'm sure it will now that you've been driving it around and slipping the clutch material off!

Drop the pan and replace filter and fluid. It should still have warantee left so get it to a dealer. Then talk to DTT to keep it alive!!
