I'm not much of a sports fan, but I'd prefer the Eagles to win because everybody seems to like the Chiefs.

This is where I really stand though:

The front disconnect axle has no way to sync speed between the rh axle and the front diff. You have to stop engage and slowly drive to engage coupling. It is possible to lock the front disconnect into position and redo the vacuum lines to make it shift on the fly. Eliminates a lot of the vacuum plumbing. http://amceaglesden.com/guide/Front_Axle_Lock

4X4 and Driveline / "Shift on the Fly"

Simple question. Why can the 81-84 models not "shift on the fly"? Thank you

Nice looking wagon! It looks like Sport package, w black plastic fender flares. I'm surprised the bumpers aren't black. My 2 81s are.
Whats the trans? 5spd wagons are 👌 .
Any upgrade by PO?

Good luck and good catch!

I'm in the central Iowa area!

Heya! Just wanted to make my introduction here in the forums! This is my '82 AMC Eagle I picked up from Northern Iowa for $300 back in October of last year! One of the coolest cars I've ever worked on and had lots of looks at gas stations when I was towing it home! I hope to get back on the road soon and have some fun with everyone here!  :occasion14:
