Gary, something to check that will cost only time, is the grounding in the
area. Clean up the ground connection to the bolt on the steering box, and
the Lucas connectors for the grounds to the lights. If the ground connection
is really bad, I've been told the lights can try to ground through another
active circuit on the way to a better ground.
Although, if the battery is boiling, that points strongly to the alternator
controls, and would be worth resolving before you need both an alternator as
well as a new battery.
