I just raised my '85 8' CO for the first time since I brought it back from Portland, OR in February. In the course of lowering it, the front would lower much faster than the rear (this makes sense to me with that extra weight hanging out so far beyond the lift rams) and then the whole system...
Thank you for the input. The roof isn't leaking that I can see, it just looks awful with all that hail damage. Even so, I think I've shelved the reskin plan for cost reasons.
I just bought this ‘69 Alaskan:
It’s in good shape inside (with the exception of lift cylinder o-rings), looks & even smells like the one my grandpa had in the early ‘70’s. The roof, clearance lights, and some window components are hail damaged.

It occurs to me now that I can actually see those photos that I didn't post one of the passenger's side, so since I don't feel like I have a realistic hope of remedying this any other way, I'll describe: it does have a dent at the front of that side which can be remedied by replacing the fender...
