Ok it is one of the old 13 speed fullers apparently. Still not sure of the trany but it doesn't really matter. I ended up disconnecting the air lines and unscrewing the handle to take a good look inside...it seemed to defiantly be missing something as the air was leaking everywhere.
I ended up taking it into a used truck part place (99 Truck Parts)...they source new too but generally buy any old industrial truck and break them down and have a pretty good inventory. I showed it too the counter guy, he pulled out a book, flipped to the page with the breakdown and discovered it was missing a spring, an o-ring and a little plastic disc.
He had no spring or disc so we went back and pulled the last stick with the matching handle/shifter...there were 50 other styles there. It was bashed a bit but the parts were all there inside. I was able to clean my body up inside and put it back together with the missing parts. I cleaned the everything up and sprayed inside the airlines with a little WD-40 for good measure too.
When I started it up and built a bit of pressure I could already feel it shifting a bit. Once there was pressure I was able to shift in all ranges. 13spd is nice, but I'm most happy just to reverse a little faster.
Thanks for all your advice and stories...I always learn something. Grant
