alright then. What gauge do I need, and where do I connect it? What readings should I have and when?

Obviously, something is not right, and hasn't been for some time. However, the symptoms I'm experiencing I've not had in the past. The corrector bracket doesn't seem to have worked because the symptoms returned. The work of previous re-builders would seem to have fixed those problems (losing 2 and 4), yes? I do what I can with the time and resources I have. If those weren't so limiting, we wouldn't be here. Also, I believe a 700r4 is a common transmission for these trucks, and a thorough discussion of symptoms, treatments, and, hopefully cures, will benefit more than just me.
