Automatic Transmission problem

I've got a 2002 F550 2wd that I use to pull horses with. I just finished replacing a bad radiator--had nothing to do with the problem, as nothing evey got hot--and now i've noticed that the transmission seems to be slipping, especially when accelerating out of an almost stop, as if you were making a left turn onto another road, and I cannot shift the transmission manually into 1st or 2nd (1 or 2). I'm still under warantee (93000 miles) but as I've dealt with Ford on warrantee matters before I'd like to go in somewhat packing--as in information. Any ideas?

Does the radiator on the F550 have a built in trans cooler or is it seperate? I figure a radiator that size would hold quite a bit of transmission fluid. Did you top it off?
