Got my m1008 out today and went for a ride and the engine noise at 55 was crazy! Granted its been 20 something years since I last rode in one but wow! its shifting and the transfer case is in high. Normal?

With 4.56 gears and a 3 speed trans she is just about to the max at 55 MPH. It is going to sound like she is taking off.
