5 new transfer cases and a Hummer Hardtop in crates in the back? you never know.. of course, could be three drums of HazMat...too Looks like a fine deuce. Save the bumper markings for history...Could be from any one of a number of NG or AR outfits in the Northeast.
Everybody wants to outdrive his brakes....trucks designed for convoys at 40 mph do not like mustang speeds...oh those poor Rockwell axles...Some folks should be kept behind the wheel of a LDS427 so they can see the scenery.
Exactly the reason for my message of above... turn the lights on.. If the batteries are low the gen is trying its hardest to get em up. and the voltages will be at the extreme..the HL on will rob some amperage and if the gen is at max, the voltage will drop indicating, to me at least, that all...
I would put in new GL1 and run it...It may last another 10 years in the condition its in...In the meantime, get another and get it serviced so you can put it in at your leisure. Linkage adjustment and service on the pins is the right routine for the lever shakes, and the inevitable bungee...

I have all the poles for sale to you, but they are here in VT, poles for Mediums, Larges, smalls, ridge poles and wooden stakes...even poles for latrine screens... they are here in Northern Vermont...take a ride up and I will fill your pickup....and give you a free quart of Maple Syrup....
Check your fluid levels and be sure there is GL1 in there... 90 wgt.. The transfer cases usually sing really loud when they get warm...I was stationed in Karlsruhe in 1965-66...555 Engineer Group. And, by all means get all the manuals and study them every time you get a chance.
All is fine... anything over 10 psi warm will keep you rolling. A mechanical gauge will solve your quandary.. remember to match the sender with the gauge....when you are doing the electric stuff..They went to 120 when the MFs pegged the 0-60 gauges...requiring a new sending unit too.
