1987 Lifted Wagon
« on: January 13, 2015, 01:07:27 AM »
I have owned this eagle for a long time.  I have put countless hours into it and I haven't worked on it much lately and I am testing the waters on a sale.  To be honest I'm not 100% sure I want to sell yet but I just haven't been excited about  working on it in a while. 

It is an 1987 Eagle Wagon
3" custom body lift (built by me)
Custom spindles machined for lift
Rear leaf springs by Alcan spring (another 1.5" lift)
Rancho 9000 in the rear
Chrysler 8.25" rear axle 3:55 ratio
Front re-geared to match
Engine swapped with fuel injected 4.0
AX15 manual trans
NP 242 transfer case (yes AWD and low range Awesome!!!)
So much more done. 

If needs finishing touches, carpet could be swapped, needs work on trans tunnel where the floor was modified for lift and manual trans.  Parking brake hasn't been hooked up since the axle swap,

Not even sure what to ask for it.  If I wanted to recoup the hours into this thing I would have to ask like $75,000 but we all know that's over the top.  Maybe $6,000??

I would appreciate some constructive suggestions on possible value too. Please PM those

Thanks

Just a suggestion, but I would suggest constructive criticism given via PM so as not to detract from your sale.
