No need to yank valve body for that. That code is usually just from one of the shift solenoids - not a given (nothing is with these electronic wonders), but usually. Very easy to swap those out, and even from GM they're under $30. If the truck starts out in 3rd gear and only shifts to overdrive, then it's the 1-2 shift solenoid. If it starts off ok but won't hit 3rd or overdrive, then it's the 3-4.

I'd like to at some point, but not for my next car. My bank is pretty strict with first time buyers.
